We are a small metal fab shop in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul Minnesota. Most of our products are centered around Stoves for heating saunas, sauna tents, tent camping, or tiny houses and off grid living. Our name is inspired by our happy place, our family cabin on Big Portage Lake in northern Minnesota.
My oldest son Conor does all of my finish welding of the stoves, he is now a professional welder after growing up in the shop. My youngest son is now also going to school for welding and my daughter also help with fab work and painting of the stoves.
I can be reached by email: ryan@bigportage.com
Please note that due our small size, we are usually building orders at the point of receiving them, so lead time averages around 4 weeks.
Since our first stove build in 2021, we have just shipped out 400th stove as of August 2026.
