The Shop

One person. One tumbler. Every lot, personally handled.

Copper State Finishing is a one-man Phoenix workshop. I'm Cameron — I answer your messages, I log the intake, I run the tumbler, and I hand the parts back. There is no queue of a hundred jobs, no shift change, no lost paperwork.

Small by design. Your parts don't sit behind someone else's rush order, and nothing leaves until it meets the standard I'd want on my own bench. That's the trade: I don't take everything that walks in the door, and the work that does come in gets real attention.

South Phoenix home workshop near the 10 and 101. Drop-offs by appointment — I confirm the address when we book. Free pickup and delivery for shops inside the 101/202.

Questions, answered

Straight talk.

Brass processing runs on a ~5 business day cycle. Machine shop lots pick up Tuesday and come back Thursday. Small-parts restoration is quoted by the lot — most pieces finish in the same week they arrive.
No. Every intake is batch-tagged the moment it lands on the bench and stays that way until it's back in your hands. Your brass stays yours, period.
Brass: no minimum for local drop-off. Machine shop lots: $150 minimum, first sample lot free. Restoration: $75 minimum per lot.
No — Copper State is Phoenix Valley only. Everything is face-to-face: drop-off by appointment or free metro pickup/delivery for shops. If you're outside the Valley I'd point you toward a mail-in processor in your area.
South Phoenix home workshop near the 10 and 101 — drop-offs are by appointment, and I confirm the exact address when we book. No walk-in storefront. Free pickup and delivery for shops inside the 101/202.
Yes — but only a limited number at a time, so pickup days never slip. Most land on a standing weekly or bi-weekly schedule in the $800–$1,200/month range. Predictable pickup, predictable invoicing, no PO drama.
