I’m Matt Shepheard, a 26-year-old engineer from Hertfordshire. My journey began as a teenager with a passion for blacksmithing, which naturally evolved into sourcing and restoring vintage industrial machinery. Driven by this interest, I completed a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering. After graduation, I honed my skills in automotive custom fabrications role, followed by a position as a Custom Solutions Applications Engineer in the fluid systems industry. These experiences eventually led me to start my own business, specialising in machinery manufacturing and bespoke fabrications. Today, I combine my technical expertise and hands-on craftsmanship to create innovative, custom-built machines that bring clients’ ideas to life.
