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!

A unique realtor's office

All finished but the designer's touch
The project for a unique realtor's office completed in record time to  specifications of both the client and the designer!

In this project I combined both metal and wood fabrication to achieve the desired effects and results.

Staining metal

Sometimes in the course of fabricating a custom piece, color may be needed for the final design. In those cases, I'll be working quickly and using both hands to work with the color stains to  produce a unique mosaic of colors suited to what a client may request. The end results can be pretty spectacular.

This photo was taken outside the shop where the nice day was perfect for carrying out the procedure on a 12 foot section of steel.

The iron gate-in or out

Gate
Well it's been a very busy few months and I am not the best photographer but trying to catch up on what I have been doing. Here is a project gate that I completed to be used in the home as a puppy gate.
