Meet Our Team
Steve grew up in a rural area of western Oregon, surrounded by antique and classic vehicles of all types. He developed an early appreciation for these machines, admiring their performance and style. He believes that by using hindsight we can extract the elegance and performance which worked so well in the past and apply it with today’s technology to provide a classic, timeless style to modern products.
Mark’s roots are in rural Indiana where he possessed an early, innate talent for machines and how they work. Moving beyond mechanics, Mark possesses an aptitude for creative design which gives Salish Metalworks its pleasing, aesthetic pop.
Our goal is to provide quality products today, inspired by the past, to serve future generations.
Artisanal Manufacturing
Our products are designed and produced on beautiful Orcas Island off the Northwest coast of Washington State. Orcas draws an eclectic mix of individualists, environmentalists, and artists. Our fabricators draw incentive from the slower island lifestyle reminiscent of the past to inspire them to quality workmanship. The natural island beauty inspires a passion to make products that are compatible with the natural environment.
All projects are crafted using clean, modern technologies, and hand finished. Our unique pieces age with natural and beautiful patinas.
