Lupton Machine

Mr. Lupton has done work for my family for a long as I can remember. When our business passed from my father's leadership to mine in 1996, Mr. Lupton treated me with the same respect and friendly service that he had given my father. We will continue to use Lupton Machine for as long as we're both in business, which I hope is for generations to come!

Tom was able to squeeze in an emergency machining request, fair priced, and friendly, highly recommend!

Stopped by today to have them cut down a 5/8 zinc plated steel bar for me from 36" to 24". From the time I walked in and was greeted, bar cut and then filed down smooth and out the door was about 3 min max. Such a nice guy and pleasant to work with.

Mr Lupton has been in this location a long time. Easy to work with. "Old School" shop. Catch him in the morning and you may get your smaller projects done while you wait/watch. I love the classical music in the background also.

If you need a skilled machinist to make or repair something, Tom Lupton is your guy. For nearly fifty years Lupton Machine shop has been serving the Austin community.

If you need something repaired, built or drilled and it's made of metal, this guy will fix you up. He is polite, intelligent, prompt, reliable, communicative and reasonably-priced. I am exceedingly pleased with the repair job that he did for me, on a favorite purse, of all things. I had searched all over town for someone to help, with no luck, but Mr Lupton fixed it in less than 24 hours for less than 20 bucks. Wish I could give him 6 stars!

Tom is the man! He tapped/threaded an aluminum project box I modified. He showed me what I was doing wrong. I tried to do this myself before seeking his experience and knowledge. Let's just say I'll be recommending him to friends or anyone for that matter that needs some custom machine work. I know I'll be back in the future!

I took in a small suspension piece off of an old Jaguar that need resurfacing and Mr Lupton was able to do it even though the part had an impossible to clamp and machine shape. Another shop had turned me away since it was a small and difficult job. He charged me only $10 and it saved me $50 and a week's wait for a new part to arrive. It also preserved the originality of the car and that meant a lot to me. The resurfaced part works perfectly and I am definitely a happy customer. Mr Lupton (Tom) is a nice man with a fascinating shop tucked away in a small industrial center just off South Lamar.
