Custom quote requests, built for real projects
Whether you need a single replacement part, a prototype bracket, a short-run assembly, or repeat production support, this page is designed to capture the details that drive an accurate estimate.
Upload what you have now — CAD, prints, photos, or sketches — and include any critical dimensions, materials, and finish needs. If the drawing isn’t final, describe your intent and we’ll confirm next steps.
Request a fabrication quote with the details that matter
Birl’s Light Fab provides custom estimates for metal parts, prototypes, production runs, signs, specialty fabrication, and replacement parts. If you’re looking for a custom metal fabrication quote or a metal fabrication estimate in Clearwater, Florida, the fastest path is to send your drawing or current concept and tell us what drives fit, strength, appearance, or repeatability.
You can request a quote from drawings, CAD files, prints, samples, sketches, photos, or early-stage ideas. Our team reviews requests based on material selection, process (sheet metal fabrication, laser cutting, tube fabrication, CNC / Matrix Machining), quantity, tolerance intent, finishing needs, and timeline.
If you’re not sure which capability you need, that’s ok. Use the form below and include any constraints you know. We’ll confirm the approach and follow up with clear next steps.

Quote FAQ
What information do you need for a fabrication quote?
The fastest quotes come from a drawing or CAD export plus a few key details: material (or environment/use-case if undecided), thickness/size, quantity, timeline, finish requirements, and any critical-to-function dimensions or tolerances. If a part interfaces with existing equipment, include notes or reference dimensions that drive fit.
Can I request a quote without a CAD file?
Yes. If you do not have CAD yet, you can upload a sketch, photo, sample reference, or a PDF print and describe the part’s function and key dimensions. We can review next steps and recommend what information will help finalize an accurate estimate.
What file types can I upload?
Common formats include PDF, DWG, DXF, STEP/STP, and IGES/IGS. You can also upload photos (JPG/PNG), STL files, or a ZIP with multiple related files. If you are unsure, upload what you have and include a note about your software and the current revision.
Can you quote prototype and one-off parts?
Yes. We regularly quote one-off parts and prototypes. Share your target use case, any critical fits, and what you’re trying to validate so we can recommend a practical path that supports revisions if needed.
Can you quote repeat production work?
Yes. If the part is repeat work or may move into production, include expected lot sizes and any long-term schedule needs. We can quote small batches and repeat production with assumptions documented up front.
Can you help me choose the right material?
Yes. If you’re undecided, tell us where the part will be used (indoor/outdoor, coastal exposure, heat, load, cosmetic expectations). Material choice affects cutting, bending, welding, machining, and finish behavior, so a little context helps us guide the right option.
