Today, we’re getting to know the hands, head, and heart behind Maier Metalworks—Jake Maier. Born and raised in Wisconsin, Jake now runs his one-man shop in Texas, where he specializes in sheet metal fabrication, bead rolling, hot rod builds, and dimple dies. A Brunt Workwear representative and a craftsman through and through, Jake values originality and precision over mass production.
Maier Metalworks is best known for his signature bead-rolled metal car interiors, custom metal wall art with handcrafted frames, and his standout hot rod builds. His work is refined and unmistakably his own. His approach to metalworking combines technical precision with artistic vision, treating each piece of metal as a canvas waiting to be transformed.
