Fabrication shops
Steel and aluminium, panel and docking blades, annular cutters through mag drills all day.
One sharpener, one machine, one standard. Here's how Helix Industrial ended up in a workshop in Bunbury.
Jayden Sharpe has worked as a fitter and machinist since 2012. Fourteen+ years in shops where a blunt blade means a rough cut, a slower job and another invoice for replacements that didn't need replacing.
In 2024 Jayden started Helix Industrial Sharpening. Not another fabrication shop - there are plenty of those, and he had no interest in competing with the people he'd spent his career working alongside. Helix Industrial exists to keep engineering and machine shops cutting, not to take work off them.
It's a one-man operation, and that's deliberate. Every blade that comes through is sharpened by the same person, on the same machine, to the same standard. Nothing gets handed to an apprentice on a Friday afternoon.
Every job gets the right setup for the tool in front of it. Nothing gets forced through a machine because it happens to be the one in the corner.
Built for blade geometry rather than for taking metal off in a hurry. It indexes the blade round and works one tooth at a time, so the last tooth comes out the same as the first.
Steel and aluminium, panel and docking blades, annular cutters through mag drills all day.
Chipper blades and saw blades, sharpened to keep fuel use and engine strain down.
Band saw blades running through meat and bone, back to a clean cut.
A handful of drill bits or one blade off the drop saw. No job's too small to ask about.
The workshop is in Bunbury, WA. Drop off anytime, or if you're a business client anywhere across the South West we'll collect and return on a regular run. Posting them in works from anywhere in Australia.
