Welcome to My Studio and Shop!

Hi!
I'm Billy Pace and I create, fabricate and design custom pieces in wood and/or metal for collectors, business owners, designers, corporations and mall displays.

What a great job! My studio and shop home base is in the Raleigh, NC area but my work has been installed in venues from California to Las Vegas to Bermuda to way down in Miami.

My pieces range from practical problem solving welding for small business owners to beautiful and creative, seasonal designs for malls. I've worked with numerous nationally known theatrical groups to design sets for their plays and dances.

Like I said, it's a great job!
Come along with me while I add to my photos and develop my gallery. You never know what I'll be creating next!

Welding a tower

Although the photo is grainy (sorry about that) this shows a stage I was in while creating a 28' tower for a mall display destined to ship to Puerto Rico!


It was fabricated in 6 removable levels for ease in shipping and storage.


Pretty high up!

Fabricating a base for a design

Many of the structural designs that I create in metal wind up being the substructure of the design. In the case of these two photos, you see the welded framework being completed. And in the second you see how the client used it in a parade.
