DER SKUNKWERKEN is a small business with a small facility which can make BIG ideas come to light. Located along the wild and scenic St. Croix River valley just south of Afton, Minnesota - Fritze DeZein is off the beaten path far enough to keep the facility access controlled. The 2000 square foot building is fully equipped with a 40’ long bay to house vehicles or equipment under construction. The 13 foot ceiling allows the use of a lift and crane for large projects. The shop area is more like a laboratory showcasing its CNC machines, with a variety of support equipment such as; manual vertical mill, band saws, cut-off saws, grinders, sanders, buffers, and media blasting. The inspection services include a Renishaw digital probing system to make accurate measurements in the VM-3 mill. Additionally, a Mititoyu digital height gauge, calipers, and micrometers combined with a 2000 pound granite surface plate allow detailed measurements of most any part. The offices have multiple high-end engineering workstations networked together and create a digital corridor from customer to finished product. These computers run the latest operating systems, software, CAD and CAM packages to keep the digital blade sharpened! Come out for a visit!
