I had a small project that required precision cutting on a rigid rubber block to fit around wall trim. After reaching out to several machine shops, most were unable to help due to the size of the job. Fortunately, I connected with Kent from Gross Machining, who responded promptly and asked for a brief description of what I needed.Kent was extremely helpful in understanding the details of my project and clearly explained how he could complete the work. He also provided a very reasonable estimate. We scheduled a time to meet at his shop in Phoenix, and he was flexible and accommodating with scheduling.When I arrived, I was impressed by his well-equipped shop—it was clear he had the tools and expertise to handle a wide range of projects. After speaking with him about his work, it became obvious that if you need a custom part made or repaired—especially something you can’t get from a manufacturer—Kent is the person to go to.He’s built a great niche business, especially for smaller projects that many other machine shops tend to turn away. The quality of his work and fair pricing really stand out.Outstanding work by Kent—I highly recommend him!

Kent was awesome to work with! Very good at what he does and it was fun to get to watch him work and cut up with him! I traveled to Phoenix from Louisville, KY for a job and he helped me out twice in a pinch! He really saved the day!

“Hands-down amazing. Kent’s a real craftsman—he hand-lathed a perfect match for my broken through-door cone head bolt, just by eye and caliper. No shortcuts, no fuss. Same-day turnaround, fair price, and it fits like it was always there. If you need custom metal work done right, this is your guy.”

I was in a bind late on a Friday night doing a repair on my truck. Called gross and told him the situation, he quickly sent me his address and when I showed up he immediately got to work on drilling and tapping a couple holes where old bolts had broke off during tear down. Had me in and out in under an hour. Would recommend to anyone needing something done.

I had a Great experience with Kent. I had a specific need and I needed to call a machine shop and Kent was available. Very knowledgeable. Had everything I needed- he was very kind and humble, and I would definitely refer him out to anyone that needed his assistance.

I had a hard time finding someone. I called him and he was up for the task. I went to his shop and made me comfortable immediately. Very nice and very knowledgeable and also took the time to get a solid idea of what I needed. He modified some hardened steel parts for my sport bike and they came out absolutely perfect!!! He even had them done earlier than expected. I will be using him again and I will recommend this shop to anyone. Thank you so much!!!!

Good, fast and at a fair price he turned my idea in to something tangible6061 aluminum with 3/8-24 threads and slots the wrench it down

Honest 5 star review! I had an aluminum base for a light fixture that I needed replicated no later than 24 hours after the first initial phone call. He calls me back in like 5 or 6 hours MAX with the finished product. It was an exact replica! 5 star craftsmanship, 5 star communication & 5 star prices!!
