Tips on looking for a fabricator

What you need is the services of a professional engineer. If the damned thing blows up and kills someone, its his insurance company that takes over.If you have his calculations, then its his problem. Of course, because he IS a professional engineer, he should be able to design a pressure vessel that conforms to ASME 8 or what ever the local standards apply, and the damned thing wont blow up!

That's the short list. Food equipment fabricators are all over. The top two on the list will probably cost more but they each have a team of engineers that will do that part for you. The rest have an engineer or two on staff and may be able to do it a little cheaper as they are smaller shops.
