Coyote Creek is a small, custom fabrication shop with big capabilities. Providing welding services, custom furniture and lighting. During WWII S. S. Ernest Sr.

Established in 2016 as new company, Coyote Creek Design and Fab LLC has deep roots going back to the early1940’s. Ernest Leopold Sr. and a partner established a plastics factory in Northeast Ohio fabricating display cases for the Bonnie Bell Cosmetics Company as well as other custom pieces. In 1947 the younger S. Ernest Leopold Jr. returned home from the Navy, participated in the family business a

nd entered Kent State University as an Industrial Arts Major. Unfortunately the partnership dissolved and the Leopold family moved to southwestern Pennsylvania in the late 1940’s starting a new venture in the hardware and building supply industry. passed away at the young age of 49 leaving behind a wife and five children. In addition to helping his mother manage the family business the younger S. Ernest Jr. continued to use his industrial art skills building furniture and creating inlaid floor designs for customers. Moving forward in time, the son of Ernest Jr., Ernest A Leopold grew up in the family business and eventually pursued an education in marketing along with wood and metal fabrication skills. Ernest A. sold the family business and continued his career in marketing and sales but still maintained an active pursuit of wood and metal design and fabrication. Over 75 years later Ernest A. is continuing the Leopold legacy of creativity and design through Coyote Creek.Several machines from the original plastic factory are still in use at the Coyote Creek shop preserving the humble heritage and time-honored tradition of creative design and quality craftsmanship passed through the Leopold generations. From inspired designs to custom products, Coyote Creek Design and Fab can bring our design, or yours, to reality.

60+ year old wrought iron railing mangled in an automobile accident. Client asked if we could fix this one as the mate was not damaged. We were able to repair using all the original iron and bring it back to its original condition.

1970 Avion Travel Trailer. Original design flaw required new frame outriggers to correctly support the aluminum shell. The outriggers were cut from 6” Jr I-beam and welded in place. Once the floor is reinstalled, the shell will have proper support over the wheel wells.

Client, can you modify a back rack to fit my side-by-side UTV? Coyote Creek design and Fab, yes we can and we will make it look original.

The job required a three inch section cut out of each side to make it symmetrical, tubing welded back together, expanded grating reinforced at the seam and weld seams blended in. A coat of gloss black and good as original.

Nice to be back in the shop. Our customer wanted plain, simple and industrial looking shelf brackets for 2”x6” planks. 11/2”x1/4” steel bar fit the ticket.

Since our latest project was a Christmas present for a client we are finally able to post some pics. Built with century old timbers and rough sawn, insect killed Ash this Farmhouse table was brought to life.

Mortise and tenon construction with hand made pegs make the base rock solid. The hand stained Ash top is elegantly accentuated with beautiful grain patterns, insect tracks and distinguished knot patterns. The recipient loved it.

From raw steel and recycled, rough sawn poplar, introducing our latest creation. Designed with a rustic, industrial flair this entertainment /hostess cart is an ideal fit for a residential or commercial setting.

The hand rubbed, Minwax, gunstock brown stain accentuates the purple, green and white hues in the beautiful machined poplar. Fabricated with a heavy gauge, steel tubing frame, hand forged handle brackets and drawer pulls, full extension drawer slides and steel frame, mesh doors ensure a lifetime of durability and use. Three coats of satin, polyurethane protect all the wood and steel components.

Contact us to see how this one of a kind piece can be yours.

Special projects require special hardware. Forged handles and drawer pulls, hand made by us. What can we make for you?

FYI Friday. Like other custom fabricators and craftsman we often hear “your product is too expensive”. Yes custom work is expensive, it takes years for a craftsman to learn his or her trade, countless tools and expensive machinery need to be acquired and shop space, utilities and insurance need paid for. When a project requires multiple, one of a kind parts like handles and brackets, it’s necessary to design and build fixtures or jigs, all part of the cost of a custom build. Here are three examples of fixtures we built to fabricate specialty parts on various projects.

Sooo, the shop has been pretty quiet for awhile. After a year hiatus traveling the country for another company we are back in the shop. A couple nice projects are in the works.
