About Flatout Manufacturing

From material selection to final inspection, Flatout Manufacturing is committed to delivering consistent, inspection-ready parts that meet the highest standards because details matter.

Our Story

Flatout Manufacturing was built on a simple idea: make precision manufacturing accessible, scalable, and easy to work with. After years in the industry – from racing to prototyping to full-scale production – we saw the same gaps over and over again: Long Lead Times, Poor Communication, and Inconsistent Quality. 

So we built Flatout to do it differently. We’re not just another job shop. We’re a modern manufacturing partner built for speed, flexibility, and technical precision. Whether you’re an engineer, a startup founder, a sourcing agent, or someone with a great idea – we make it easy to get your parts made, exactly how you need them.

 

Our Mission

To deliver high-quality, precision parts through a streamlined, transparent manufacturing process no matter the size, complexity, or scale of the job. At Flatout Manufacturing, our goal is to make manufacturing accessible to everyone from startups and engineers to product developers and everyday problem solvers. We combine cutting-edge capabilities with a customer first mindset to ensure every part is delivered with speed, accuracy, and total clarity.

Our Values

We believe the best manufacturing partners are built on more than machines — they’re built on principles. These are the values that drive every project, every part, and every customer relationship at Flatout Manufacturing:

 

  • Precision: Every detail matters. We hold tight tolerances and higher standards.
  • Clarity: Clear communication from quote to delivery. No surprises.
  • Scalability: From one part to one thousand, we grow with your needs.
  • Trust : You can rely on us for consistent quality and realistic timelines.

Where Our Drive Comes From

After more than a decade in racing and advanced manufacturing, I saw first hand how difficult it could be for companies and innovators to get quality parts quickly, reliably and at a reasonable price. Long lead times, unclear communication, and lack of flexibility were holding great ideas back. I started Flatout Manufacturing to change that. Our mission is simple: make precision manufacturing accessible, scalable, and transparent for everyone. Whether you’re developing a prototype, scaling production, or solving a unique challenge, Flatout is here to make it happen.
