Your Database Should Be Your Edge. Not Your Bottleneck.

You're running a fabrication shop. Estimators are hunting for pricing that should be in the system. Fittings missing from the database - again.

And somewhere in the back of your mind, you know:

When Dave retires, half of what he knows walks out the door with him.

Here's what nobody tells you:

The software isn't broken. The setup is.

The big shops winning bids? They're not smarter. They're not cheap. They just have systems that work.

What This Place Is

This is the only place online built specifically for people who run ESTmep®, CAMduct®, and CADmep® databases in real fabrication environments.

Not theory. Not generic Autodesk support. Not consultants who've never touched a plasma table.

Shop-floor knowledge from 20+ years in the trade.

Who I Am

I'm Tim. Came up through Local 73. Ran operations at a sheet metal shop for two decades. Built the databases. Trained the estimators. Fixed the messes.

Now I help contractors like you get the database right - so bids go out faster, pricing stays accurate, and knowledge doesn't leave when people do.

The Real Problem

I've watched shops spend tens of thousands on software they never properly set up. Estimators working around the system instead of with it. Knowledge trapped in one person's head - until that person leaves.

That's the enemy here. Not the software. The chaos that happens when nobody configures it right.

This community exists to fix that. One database, one shop, one problem at a time.

Your First Move

You already know what's broken.

Post it. Name the bottleneck. We'll fix it together.

Welcome aboard.
