Mr. Lupton has done work for my family for a long as I can remember. When our business passed from my fathers leadership to mine in 1996, Mr. Lupton treated me with the same respect and friendly service that he had given my father. We will continue to use Lupton Machine for as long as were both in business, which I hope is for generations to come!
Mr Lupton has been in this location a long time. Easy to work with. Old School shop. Catch him in the morning and you may get your smaller projects done while you wait/watch. I love the classical music in the background also.
I took in a small suspension piece off of an old Jaguar that need resurfacing and Mr Lupton was able to do it even though the part had an impossible to clamp and machine shape. Another shop had turned me away since it was a small and difficult job. He charged me only $10 and it saved me $50 and a weeks wait for a new part to arrive. It also preserved the originality of the car and that meant a lot to me. The resurfaced part works perfectly and I am definitely a happy customer. Mr Lupton (Tom) is a nice man with a fascinating shop tucked away in a small industrial center just off South Lamar.
Tom was able to squeeze in an emergency machining request, fair priced, and friendly, highly recommend!
Tom is the man! He tapped/threaded an aluminum project box I modified. He showed me what I was doing wrong. I tried to do this myself before seeking his experience and knowledge. Lets just say Ill be recommending him to friends or anyone for that matter that needs some custom machine work. I know Ill be back in the future!
If you need a skilled machinist to make or repair something, Tom Lupton is your guy. For nearly fifty years Lupton Machine shop has been serving the Austin community.
Tom’s a great guy. He didn’t have what I needed, but he sent me to the right person that could help me.
Great guy and accomplished model maker.
