A Shop That Makes Things
Actually Work.

We started Ingenious Solutions because the local machining scene in Vernon, BC was stuck in the past — long lead times, minimum orders, and gatekeepers. We're here to change that.

Built by Makers, for Makers

Ingenious Solutions is a Vernon, BC shop built on a simple idea: the people who actually make things should get the tools and service they need — not a corporate machine shop with a 50-part minimum and a two-week backlog.

We've been working with metal, lasers, and CNC machines for years — from hobbyist projects to production runs. We know what makers need: fast turnaround, honest pricing, and someone who actually picks up the phone when you have a question.

Whether you're prototyping a part for your next build, restoring a vintage motorcycle, or need 500 identical brackets for a local business, we treat every order with the same care. No job too small. No minimum. No red tape.

Location
Vernon, British Columbia
8114 Highland Place, right in the Okanagan. Easy to find, plenty of parking. Walk in anytime during business hours.
Philosophy
No Minimums. Ever.
One part or one thousand. We charge per-job, not per-unit. Your first prototype costs the same rate as your production run.
Turnaround
Same-Day, Usually.
Most laser cutting jobs are done while you wait. Send files in the morning, walk out with parts by lunch.
