The Full Story

Hey! Welcome! I'm glad you're here, even if it's only to have a look.

Here's a little about us... well.. me.. hehe

What started out of boredom in my part of a shared factory one dreary 2021  lockdown afternoon with me looking at my MIG welder and thinking "F*ck it! Lets weld some sh*t!" soon turned into me doing some custom fab work for a few clients and building the odd ute tray for a few extra bucks in my down time.

It was at that time, that Welderup Kustoms was born!

Fast forward a few months, 'Iso and the Rona' hitting hard in Melbourne (Basically, we were all f*cked, yeah?) - it was time to find a new job because the one I had was coming to an end, I figured it was time to bite the bullet and try to get myself a job working with metal - learn some new tricks, because if we're not learning, we're dead, right?

I scored myself the first job I applied for, f*cking mint, right? Got myself a cool job doing all the 'pleb' work (grinding, sanding, cleaning, autosert, packing, driving the fork, that kinda stuff aye?) for a mid-sized, but bloody busy sheetmetal & custom fab shop in Dandy - and we're only getting busier! Fast forward 5 weeks into the job, I find myself situated as their head brake press operator with two staff working under me. Apparently I had what it takes.

Stay tuned and keep us in mind when you're looking for your next Ute Tray accessory or some Custom Fabrication work done.

Stay classy legends!
