Built in our own shop
Cull Works is the crabbing line of a Baltimore injection molding and toolmaking shop that has been running for two years. We design the parts, cut the molds and run the presses ourselves. Every run is measured against the print before it ships, and when a crabber tells us what breaks, we can change the tool.
We take suggestions on what to make next. Call or text with the part you can't get, and we'll look at making it.
