Hey, it’s been a few since we’ve posted anything, but fear not. We here at TORK are busy little bees and have many new, large, and exciting projects on the immediate horizon. From Hospitals to Restaurants to Conservatories , we are going to go mad with work…which of course is a good thing.
So, stay tuned for all of the craziness and the images that will be going along with it.

We’ve been dropping some new things into the blog. First, we’ve added Services, Contact, and Portfolio pages. The Services page has a good overview of what we do here, though other services will be added as we better define that page. The Contact page is…well…it’s how you contact us and all the various methods of doing so. The Portfolio page has images of past and current projects to give you an idea of what we can do for you, but just because you don’t see what you want there, it doesn’t mean we can’t help you. We’ll work with you to make your idea a reality, just contact us, we’re friendly folks here at TORK.

Welcome to TORK’s casting division blog. The official website is here > TORKWORKS This blog was set up to focus on the casting division, show current projects, and let you know exactly what services we have available. All of this information and more will soon be divided up into pages, with the main page being current projects and company news. Some of the services we offer in the resin casting division are short run resin casting, long run resin casting, mold making, bronze casting, and we also do resin casting and mold making for Ball Jointed Dolls (BJDs). The Ball Jointed Dolls were new to us and we’ve learned quite a bit over the past year. That’s about it for now, stay tuned for the good stuff to come. Site updates should happen pretty frequently.
Thanks, The TORK crew
