ABOUT
The Metal Shop is one man’s vision that turned reality.
Rick Disharoon, a Delmar, MD native, has always been excited and fascinated with 4x4 vehicles, fabrication, and mechanics. After he attended vocational school and then served our country in the United States Air Force, where he furthered his education with air frame repair.
After many years as a repair man, mechanic, welder, and fabricator for a logging company, he and his wife ventured out on their own. Hence in 2007 The Metal Shop was born; just one man and his 16-year-old son, Ryan Disharoon. Their focus was 4x4’s, roll cages, bumpers, lift kits and small custom fabrication jobs. By 2009 the company was able to add Ryan on full-time to payroll and the rest is history. As this one man, Rick Disharoon, his wife Sherry, son Ryan Disharoon, and now his daughter Jaclyn have grown a small business into a world-wide known name.
