Wayward Machine Co. was founded in 2016 by long-time metalworker Bobby Middleton, who developed his metalworking skills through years of building and restoring vintage and antique motorcycles. The attention to detail and devotion to craftsmanship has carried over to all of the projects we work on big or small. 

Over the last eight years, Wayward has developed a reputation for high quality custom metal fabrication that has brought our work into fine dining restaurants, luxury hotels, and countless beautiful homes. 

Wayward Machine Co. does not cut corners - we file them. And it is that attitude and approach to jobs which keeps our customers happy and sets our work apart.  

Our team of installers will treat your home, restaurant or job site with the same care and attention to detail that we apply to our fabrication. The highest standard of quality and service.

Located in Chicago Illinois, Wayward Machine Co produces handmade products for both local and out of state customers.
