Machining

Great place to get threads done

Do a very good job and timely too. They could probably have it done faster if I had an appointment.

unprofessional machine shop waiting to screw you up. Find another shop.

Great workers

IDL is a fantastic growing machine shop which also provides engineering support and prototyping with customers ranging from Aerospace to Medical, Commercial and others. As a previous employee of over 2 years in mechanical/manufacturing engineering position, I highly recommend it both as a supplier as well as an amazing opportunity to contribute, learn and grow in an environments that feels like a family with supportive owners who are industry leaders with decades of successful industry experience in both business and engineering.

Full short block rebuild requested on a 5.9 Cummins 24V. Ended up getting the short block 3 months after dropping it off. Head work was also done, but upon startup developed a fuel leak off the head. Ended up being a soft plug they mistakenly popped out of the fuel galley. Led to many cold hours tearing the front of the motor apart trying to find the leak (originally thought to be coolant) and replacing a water pump. Sam was helpful diagnosing the leak as he had another 24V head on the floor to look at. Even offered up a couple spare soft plugs. Unfortunately NAPA provided the plug needed for a whole 76 cents. Communications is a major issue however. While waiting for the short block around the 2 month mark I was told countless times, "it's almost done", then "it'll be done on this date..." unfortunately none of this was true and kind of misleading. I went in and found they hadn't even started on the block machine work. A month later it was finally done. Like the people, but unless your sending industrial products in, I would search for another competent shop locally.
