For making or rebuilding metal parts for your boat, Ken Blake is a most imaginative machinist in making stuff from an arm waving conversation and no drawings. You can see a picture of him in action on my mast head casting blog (http://nonsuch22blueberry.blogspot.com/2009/06/replacing-mast-head-sheave.html).


Ken Blake Machine shop
29318 Mission Blvd
Hayward CA
510-258-3592 (cell)

Ken's shop is a little out of the way, but he is an order of magnitude cheaper than any of the closer shops.

His shop is behind a tacky bar, around the corner out of sight behind the welding shop.

Enjoy Ken, he is a jewel.
