I had a wonderful experience with Create Cut Invent at 5403 Patton Dr, Suite 220. Steve did an…read moreoutstanding job engraving a retirement gift for a colleague of mine, and the entire experience could not have been more pleasant. The craftsmanship, professionalism, prompt service, and attention to detail were exceptional. What started as "just buying a gift" turned into creating something truly meaningful and personal -- something my friend and his family will remember and appreciate for years. At one point, people suggested I simply buy a gift card and let my colleague choose something himself. I'm so glad I didn't. A personalized gift carries emotions, friendship, memories, and thoughtfulness behind it, and Create Cut Invent helped make that possible. From now on, this will be my go-to place for meaningful and personalized gifts. Highly recommended.

Once the details were finalized, it was turned around in just a few hours and it was exactly what I needed! Steven was extremely generous with his time and advice. His incredibly friendly personality paired with enthusiasm for the craft is rare to find these days. Beyond the excellent work, the owner is a Chicago legend. Honored to have Steven's services so close by in the Western Suburbs. I will definitely be using them again for any fabrication!

Whitney and the team did a fantastic job refurbishing an old heaven hill whiskey barrel that I had…read morein my living room. I was using it as an extension of my bar. I really liked it, but it was in a sad shape. There was a gooey residue on the barrel that would sometimes leave imprints on peoples clothes if they brushed up against it. And the barrel hoops kept falling down. Chicago fabrications brought the barrel back to life. They did an excellent job sanding and staining the barrel and cleaning up the metal hoops and fastening them so they would no longer slip down the barrel. And all that residue is gone. It looks like a million bucks and I would definitely recommend them for any projects you may be thinking of

Not only did her experience and ideas make the project much better, but it was done in less than half the time estimated, with some amazing trivets provided from the scraps as a gift.

First off Ben and his team at Hocman Fabrication And Speed are certainly leaders of their…read moreindustry!! I first met Ben as a fellow sponsor for our club Chicago Auto Club West (CACW) and got to know him fairly well before having used his services. He was always the first one to jump in and help or provide advice on other projects. After being to his business and seeing his meticulous custom fabrication skills on several occasions I was reassured he was going to be the only choice among many other that I truly felt 100% confident in completing the work on my 2020 Ferrari 812 Superfast project. Ben and his team walked me through every step and what to expect prior to even dropping off the 812 Superfast. Almost instantly after dropping off the Ferrari with him, he was sending me consistent updates via text, photos and best of all high quality videos explaining exactly what was going on. There wasn't any point of time during the project that I had to call him or go check in on the progress, he was reaching out to me so I always knew the status. This was honestly the best customer service I've ever seen! Hochman Fabrication And Speed was installing a Fabspeed exhaust, Novitec Sport Springs and Spacers on the 812 Superfast for me that I had already purchased. Looking back at it I should have been more patient and went with one of his custom fabricated exhaust since we ran into a design flaw with the exhaust I brought him. After installing the exhaust Ben quickly caught things weren't sealing properly causing a leak. His experience and skill was proven at this point because he analyzed the problem, had the solution, fixed the issue and was back on track in under 30min!! This blew my mind! Most other would have probably spent countless hours trying to figure it out or walked away. Not these guys! They pushed through and had it resolved in not time at all!! Getting into this project I was expecting Hochman Fabrication And Speed to need the Ferrari for about a week. To my surprise they were able to knock out everything in 3 days with no corners cut and everything tested to ensure a high quality install!! Since they were installing new springs on a car that has a front lift and tinkering with the exhaust I was anticipating possible dashlight, codes or calibration that would be done by a Ferrari service center and I don't know how Ben and his team did it but that was not the case at all!!!! After their work no dash lights came on, front lift in full working order and nothing needs calibration! Which probably saved me a good chuck of change if I had to take it to the stealership. Thank you Ben and the team at Hocman Fabrication And Speed!! You all have earned a customer for life and can't wait to bring you the next project!!
