Solutions In Metal, LLC

      My name is Alex Ayers and I am the founder and operator of Solutions In Metal here in Roanoke, Virginia.  Born and raised in the Salem/Roanoke area, I grew up in a Homeschooled family.  After obtaining my GED in 2008, I moved to Orlando, Florida to attend Motorcycle Mechanic's Institute.  At this school I took Harley Davidson as my elective course.  I moved back to Roanoke after graduating MMI in February of 2010.  Since graduating school I continued to pursue a career in the motorcycle and powersports industry.  My background as a mechanic ranges from working as a Harley technician at a master level, all the way to metric aftermarket shops and European motorcycle dealers.  Alongside my career as a technician, I have always had a fascination with metal working and welding.  I have always had a welding machine or access to one during my career as a tech.  My first weld ever made was when an older veteran Harley tech taught me how to weld exhaust tubing together with an oxyacetylene torch and a coat hanger.  Needless to say I was hooked and I haven't looked back since!  During the last 15 years I have had the opportunity to work in some industrial and commercial applications including heavy industrial maintenance and welding.  I started Solutions In Metal with the intention of providing the same level of precision and dedication required to be a successful motorcycle technician.  The world of welding and metal fabrication is endless.  It has opened so many more doors and opportunities for me to grow as a craftsman.  Thank you for all of your support, I look forward to doing business with you
