Lafayette Tool and Die is looking for an experienced Toolmaker/Machinist.

If you enjoy variety, problem solving, and quality craftsmanship and you’re tired of being treated like a number instead of a name, this could be a great fit.

This is a true tool room environment, not a production line. Our work is varied, and no two days are necessarily the same.

What You’ll Do
• Run CNC and manual mills and lathes independently
• Build, repair, and modify tooling, fixtures, and one off parts
• Read and interpret prints and machine to tight tolerances
• Think through setups, tooling, and machining methods
• Work independently while also contributing as part of a team
• Take pride in producing accurate, quality work

What You Can Expect
We offer a positive, respectful work environment where experienced people are trusted to do their jobs. You’ll have the independence to work on your own, with a team available when collaboration or another perspective is needed.

We value quality over quantity and craftsmanship over rushing.
If you have at least 7 years of experience, enjoy variety and hands-on machining, and take pride in doing things right, we’d like to hear from you.

Interested? Send us a message or reach out to Lafayette Tool and Die to learn more, email your resume to [email protected] or call 765-429-6362.

Please note: We are looking to hire directly and are not seeking recruiting or staffing agency assistance for this position.

One block of aluminum.

Multiple machining operations.

Skilled team members, each playing a role in getting it right.

From programming to setup, and from machining to final inspection, every step matters.

The end result? A precision-machined part, exactly as intended.

It's always rewarding to watch raw material become something engineered for a specific purpose.

What can our team help you build?

Material choice can make or break your budget.

304 stainless steel? Tough, durable… and tougher on machining time.
6061 aluminum? Fast, efficient, and ideal for prototypes.
PTGE or Delrin? Lightweight with excellent low-friction performance.

Then beat material isn’t always the strongest, it’s the one that best fits the job.

We’ll help you balance performance and cost to find the right fit.

The customer requested that we redo the knurling on this part, and we successfully restored it. A quick rework yielded a significant improvement, transforming a worn-out part into one that appears new again. The before and after results are self-explanatory. In some cases, repairing the part correctly is more important than replacing it.

As you plan for the year ahead, it’s a great time to revisit a principle we all know well: measure twice, cut once. The right planning, tools, and support from the start can save time, reduce waste, and keep your operation running smoothly.

That’s where we come in. From custom tooling solutions to on-site consultations, our team is here to help you get it right the first time—so you can maintain throughput, improve consistency, and avoid costly rework.

Whether you’re launching new projects or optimizing existing processes, we’d welcome the opportunity to support your goals this year.

Feel free to reach out anytime to schedule a consultation or discuss your tooling needs, 📧[email protected].
