“Seasons of Change” by Kelsey Marsh @ TKMD This trio of trees SOLD at our show in Bluffton, SC in October 2023. Kelsey loves bringing nature to life through her metal work.

“More Cowbell” by David Carmona @ TKMD This beautiful bell SOLD at our show in Bluffton, SC in October 2023. Dave always has music on his mind so once he had this idea, he couldn’t resist. Inspired by Asian architecture, we think this bell turned out beautifully and fits nicely in its new home.

Any scuba diving lovers around here? While we’ve never tried personally, our customers are big fans and wanted something to symbolize their love of the water. So we designed this two layered wall hanging for them.

We love our dogs around here so we were happy to fulfill this request. This cute lil pup unfortunately passed away but to remember his spot in the yard where he’d always sit and wait for his owner, we made this custom drawing stake.

Dogwood #2 by Kelsey Marsh. This was a commissioned piece that came from @festivalinthepark in September. A lovely couple saw Kelsey’s original Dogwood piece and loved it so much they wanted a bigger version. This one measures 48” wide and about 30” tall. The flowers and leaves are all forged to get their unique appearance. The branches welded with texture. And everything heated to an extreme temperature to get that forged black look.

“The Romp” - Did you know a group of otters is called a ‘Romp’? We didn’t either until this project! We had a lovely couple from WV whom we met at one of our shows in Charlotte, commission this piece for their home. It’s now in its beautiful new place over-looking the real otters that you can often see playing there. Here’s what our customers had to say… “Thanks so much for the piece. We both love it. Sitting here admiring it on our porch wall (which we think ended being a complimentary color) is already adding to our WV vacation experience and hopefully will do so for years to come.  Pleasure working with ya” • • • • • #decorativemetals #metalart #metalfabricating #craftmetal #custommetalwork #metalfabshop #metalwork #cutmetal #metalwalldecor #cnc #cncplasma #plasmacutting #plasmatable #smallbusiness #hypertherm #welding #powdercoat #powdercoating #metalsculpture #fineart #sculpture #youtube

Buck’s Tractor Shed. Had fun designing and making this 32” diameter sign for a local customer. He then painted and hung it as soon as he got it home. We think it looks great in its new spot!

Big things are coming…. #firebreather

We had the pleasure of creating this memorial tree for a local charity, The Splashpaw Foundation, to remember the loved ones(both human and furry) that have been lost by various families in the area. Splashpaw held an event to raise money so they can continue to provide funds for families needing help with medical treatments etc. It was at this event that our ‘Weeping Willow’ was unveiled. Slowly this tree will be filled with copper leaves with these loved ones names. Special thanks to Richard @precision_works_customs for providing the engraving work!

Day Lillies - Made by Kelsey If you stopped by our booth at the last Art Walk, you would have seen this beauty. This piece is so fun with its bold colors and the way it moves in the wind. The Day Lillies are still available for purchase.

We can finally reveal that “not so little” secret project we’ve been working on! In December 2021, the team at Custer State Park in South Dakota, asked us to create a 5’x6’ art piece as well as a donor plaque for their brand new ‘Bison Interpretive Center’. We were shocked and VERY excited at the opportunity. We delivered this piece as a family earlier this month and installed it before the rest of the exhibit was put in place. It’s a beautiful setting for a piece we’re so extremely proud of. We’re excited for everyone visiting the park to see the new center! #decorativemetals #metalart #metalfabricating #craftmetal #custommetalwork #metalfabshop #metalwork #cutmetal #metalwalldecor #cnc #cncplasma #plasmacutting #plasmatable #smallbusiness #hypertherm #welding #powdercoat #powdercoating #custerstatepark #blackhills #sculptnouveau

We’ve been working our tails off on a huge project. We have to keep it under wraps for a little bit longer but we thought we’d share a few teasers.

“Welcome to Crown Royal Country” Another custom sign out the door!

So much brewing in the shop. We have exciting news coming regarding a commissioned project, and the whole family is working hard to make things happen. Here’s just a glimpse of some things we have been working on for an upcoming art show. #decorativemetals #metalart #metalfabricating #craftmetal #custommetalart #custommetalwork #metalfabshop #metalwork #cutmetal #metalwalldecor #cnc #cncplasma #plasmacutting #plasmatable #smallbusiness #familybusiness #hypertherm #welding #powdercoat #powdercoating #metalsculpture

It’s not often we get to spend time making the needed updates and improvements to our workshop so for the last month, we’ve been making it a priority to get some of our checklist completed. One of the first tasks was getting this grinder and flap disk organizer made and hung. It saves us time and frustration from searching all over for our mighty tools. We know exactly where they are now! Designed and cut on our @maverickcncplasma 5’x10’ table. Welded on some rod for hanging and then thrown in the oven to powder coat using @columbiacoatings Black Lustre. Now we’re good to go! #decorativemetals #metalart #metalfabricating #craftmetal #custommetalwork #metalfabshop #metalwork #cutmetal #metalwalldecor #cnc #cncplasma #plasmacutting #plasmatable #smallbusiness #hypertherm #welding #powdercoat #powdercoating

Prepping for a big fence project we have coming up for the @concordncgov @clearwaterartsnc 98 out of 224 pieces sheared. If only it took 30 seconds in real life.

Anyone up for some billiards 🎱? We love this custom billiards sign we got to design and make for a local family.

This is not our normal post but we wanted to share this story of a dear friend, father, and craftsmen. Johnathan was in a tragic accident where as a result, he lost both of his legs. He has been working hard as the provider for his family as a blacksmith and farrier for many years. Due to this life changing tragedy, he is facing a challenging road ahead. Swipe for more info.

We ❤️ NC. If you stopped by our booth at the most recent art walk, you would have seen this one of a kind topographic map of North Carolina. We love this unique piece and the hint of color it has.

One of our recent creations. We love the juxtaposition of the wood and steel. No sooner was this complete and someone “just had to have it” Happy (and sad) to see it go so fast. #custommetalart #metalart #cabco #concordnc #metalfabrication #plasmacutting #welding #weldart #metaldesigns

This may not be our prettiest or most artistic work, but it’s a necessary part of what we do here. These columns are the beginnings of a storage building we are constructing for a client in the Charlotte area.

We sold this beauty at our last show. Nothing validates your hard work and passion quite like watching someone stop in their tracks to say they love and need your artwork in their home. We love what we do and love that it puts a smile on peoples faces!

We haven’t posted in far too long so here’s another commissioned project from some return clients(recognize the blue birds 😉). “Meet me at the Cherry Tree” is plasma cut, hammered, hand bent, welded and powder coated(even did some by hand with a paint brush). The lighting in our shop really doesn’t do it justice but our clients were thrilled with the results… and that’s all the matters! #decorativemetals #metalart #metalfabricating #craftmetal #custommetalwork #metalfabshop #metalwork #cutmetal #metalwalldecor #cnc #cncplasma #plasmacutting #plasmatable #smallbusiness #hypertherm #welding #powdercoat #powdercoating

Remember that post where we asked you to guess what we were making? While there were some great guesses, no one got it quite right.... it was a difficult one! We had a big railing project(post to come soon) so we invested in a @baileigh_industrial tube notcher. This beast deserved its own stand so we made our own! Easily moved around on two casters this thing works perfect. Plus, all of the bits are right where we need them, when we need them. #decorativemetals #metalart #metalfabricating #craftmetal #custommetalwork #metalfabshop #metalwork #cutmetal #metalwalldecor #cnc #cncplasma #plasmacutting #plasmatable #smallbusiness #hypertherm #welding

Star Wars day has arrived! And so has our Star Wars collection! We’ve been waiting for the right time to launch these and today feels like the perfect day for it.

If you are interested in getting your hands on one or all, send us a message for more information.

Ok no, put Whistler, Canada.” Q: First concert? A: “Chicago shortly followed by Britney Spears lol” Q: What would be your superpower? A: “Teleportation” Q: Who would play you in a movie? A: “Emmy Rossum” Q: If you could live anywhere, where would it be? A: “On a ranch in Montana”.

Take a look at this commissioned project we just finished! “Love Birds” was inspired by autumn, the season in which this couple met and got married in, and blue birds, who mate for life. This was such a fun project to work on because it involved so many different techniques to create different finishes on each element. The best part was getting to bring an idea to life!

Welcome to our weekly installment of “Behind the Shield”. Next up, is Kelsey! Kelsey spends the majority of her time designing and creating custom orders while also operating our CNC plasma table. She likes to do it all so often times you’ll see her around the shop helping with other tasks... or she’s bossing you around on how to do it and what you need to get done! Here’s some quick fire questions to get to know Kelsey better: Q: Favorite Project? A: I just finished a really cool custom project that I had a ton of fun with. Anytime I get to be creative and learn and try new techniques, I’m in my happy place. Q: First CD? A: Avril Lavigne ‘Let Go’. Fun fact, I still carry CD’s in my car to listen to. Q: What song do you have to sing to no matter when it comes on? A: That’s a tough one because there are so many. Shinedown’s cover of ‘Simple Man’ would have to be one or ‘Since you’ve been gone’ by Kelly Clarkson 😂. Q: Who would play you in a movie? A: Jennifer Lawrence. We don’t look alike but I think she could get my personality. Q: Favorite place you’ve ever been? A: Another tough one... Kos, Greece was an amazing vacation. Q: Favorite food? A: Greek or Italian food.

To do: •Get a welding helmet that fits 😅 In other news... we’re finishing up a really cool custom project that we can’t wait to share. Keep your eyes peeled! 👀 #decorativemetals #metalart #metalfabricating #craftmetal #custommetalwork #metalfabshop #metalwork #cutmetal #metalwalldecor #cnc #cncplasma #plasmacutting #plasmatable #smallbusiness #hypertherm #welding

“Are signs and metal decor all you do?” Absolutely not! We also do commercial, industrial and structural metal design and fabrication. We had the opportunity to design and fabricate ventilation panels for a large cargo container used for storing tools. Trust us, it was HOT in there! These vents allow for enough air to circulate within the container so it doesn’t stay so stuffy inside. Made complete with mesh screen so no bugs can enter ❌ Take a look for yourself! DM us if you have any questions on what we can do for you or if you would like to know more.

What may seem like a simple cart, has so much meaning... A good friend of ours came to us for help to modify his work cart that he is constantly pulling in and out of his work van. After a couple of years, he had figured out what changes it needed in order to make it more user friendly and make his job easier. Why not just replace the cart? Well, this cart was gifted to him by his son, his son that he lost not too long ago. So this work cart is so much more than that, it’s a cherished memory. We were thrilled to be able to help and be the “tools” needed to keep this thing going! We added some tapered rails so the cart could be tipped on its back and loaded into the van without dumping out all of the tools. We also fabricated and mounted a base plate to accommodate a vise. We did a quick touch up paint job and look forward to having this cart back with us for some powder coating to really get it in tip top shape. If you have any “special” Metal fab jobs you need doing, feel free to send us a DM. No job is too small!

Welcome back to our weekly installment of “Behind the Shield”. Next up, is Tracy! The “better half” of the “idea man”. After 36 years of being a wife and mother, Tracy is still committed to taking care of her family but excited to work along side them and even learn from them. She helps with whatever tasks need doing but spends most of her time taking charge of the angle grinder 💪🏼 Here’s some quick fire questions to get to know Tracy better: Q: Favorite midnight snack? A: Popcorn Q: Favorite Book? A: I love to read so it’s hard to pick just one, but the book I’ve read a couple times is ‘Wish You Well’ by David Baldacci. I also love ‘Little Women’. Q: Who would play you in a movie? A: Rachel Weisz 😜 (Get it?) Q: Favorite place you’ve ever been? A: Scotland, Hopefully one day I’ll get to go back. Q: What’s one thing that makes your day better? A: Anytime I can be with my family, I’m happy. Also, when I can sleep in late.

Over the next few weeks, we will be introducing you to the Tilted Knight Metal Designs team with a series called, “Behind the Shield”. First up, is our main man and founder, Dave. He is the reason why we’re all here and that’s why we like to call him the “Idea Man”. His responsibilities include, but are not limited to: cutting, welding, grinding, sweeping, painting, sand blasting, maintaining the place, running the business and giving orders. He doesn’t work hard at all! 🤪 Here’s some quick fire questions to get to know Dave better: Q: Favorite project you’ve worked on? A: We got to design, fabricate, and install all of the custom metal work and custom concrete and woodwork for a restaurant/bar called The Rusty Onion in Charlotte, NC. Q: What would your Knight name be? A: Sir Guitar-Zan Q: Favorite food? A: Pizza all day Q: What song do you HAVE to sing along to no matter where you are? A: Sweet Child of Mine Q: Who would play you in a movie? A: Daniel Craig Q: Superpower? A: My current superpower is watching the mosquitos die trying to suck my blood. But I want to fly, of course!

Ever wondered why we’re called Tilted Knight Metal designs? Well, we thought we would share the story behind the name... So the story goes like this- Dave and his son Philip, both avid motorcycle enthusiasts, decided in 2009 and 2010 to put on some week-long motorcycle trips along with a bunch of their close friends. Of course, this "gang" would need a name! So giving consideration to their shared affinity for bikes and craft beer, we came up with the name "Tilted Knights". Sadly, in late 2018 we lost our dear son,brother and friend, Philip, suddenly to a rare and previously unknown genetic disorder. As we developed our business concept, again, we needed a name. The family agreed that Tilted Knight Metal Designs was perfect! This name would speak to the medium that we work with, but would also always be a "nod" to Philip. Keep your eyes peeled over the coming weeks as we do a series of posts introducing you to our team, here at Tilted Knight Metal Designs!

**NEW** “Birds on a Wire” is a one of a kind, hand made, metal art piece that can sit on your mantle or hang on your wall. This piece was hand drawn, then plasma cut using our CNC plasma machine. We then hammered and shaped the metal, by hand, to create movement. After welding the 10 individual pieces together, we made the frame using 1/2” square tube, to pull everything together. We wanted to keep a natural and neutral finish to this art piece so instead of paint, we used a meticulous rusting process to create a unique finish. We top it off with multiple layers of a protective clear coat. Dimensions: 16”H x 34”W **Two mounting holes have been drilled into the back of the frame for easy hanging.
