Underground Metal Works is a place where tattoo art meets metal art.\u00a0 Its metal cutting with a rebellious streak and fire in the belly, and it is so cutting edge that owner Stephanie Hoffman\u00a0@underground_metal_works<\/a>\u00a0is fast becoming a rising star in the world of welding.<\/p>\n

Stephanie battled the stereotypical perception that welding was a man\u2019s profession for years.\u00a0 \u201cEverything I did was under a microscope, pushing me to get better. I knew I could never be \u201cjust okay\u201d at any single welding process \u2014 I had to be the best.\u201d<\/p>\n

That grit and determination to not just make it in a man\u2019s world, but to smash it is what makes Underground Metal Works the success it is today.\u00a0 When Stephanie chose Swift-Cut for her first CNC plasma cutting table, we were as excited as her to see what she would do with it.<\/p>\n

\u201cI typically create tattoo inspired pieces so finding a machine that not only had percussion cutting capabilities but also had an engraver was a must.\u201d<\/p>\n

She posted her first go with the engraver on Instagram \u2013 saying the six-foot piece of copper would have taken her days to do by hand but with Swift-Cut, it took under an hour.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy Swift-Cut table has drastically cut down on production time and amplified my capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n

The video got nearly a thousand likes from fellow metal cutters \u2013 she is certainly getting the respect she deserves.<\/p>\n

We asked Stephanie about her first few weeks with the Swift-Cut machine.\u00a0 We know that she was keen to get the machine working for her as soon as possible and that one of the reasons she chose Swift-Cut is because of the easy-to-use software.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m far from a computer whiz and I was up and running in just a few hours. From the ease of use, the factory cut setting being spot on which makes clean up a breeze. I always say, \u201ctime is money in this industry\u201d and this is about to save me a lot of time and make me a lot of money!\u201d<\/p>\n

Stephanie is about to launch a\u00a0YouTube channel<\/a>, with the Swift-Cut table being one of the stars of the show.\u00a0 We don\u2019t know a single metal cutter who is not passionate about their art, and who have not revelled in the capabilities of the Swift-Cut table, but Stephanie is taking it up a notch and it is exciting to watch.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really looking forward to creating more custom signs, furniture and sculptures with the help of my Swift-Cut table!\u201d Not as much as your growing audience, Stephanie.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re pretty confident that anyone in two minds about the Swift-Cut table will be fully on board after seeing the work Underground Metal Works create with their machine.\u00a0 If you think its out of your league budget wise, we urge you to get in touch, it is more affordable than you think!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
