Re: SEC Letter dated 10/3/05


Dear Mr. Cascio:

We have filed an amended 10-KSB/A for the year ended
December 31, 2004, a copy of which is attached, in response
to your letter dated October 3, 2005. Your requested changes
have been made to the third paragraph of the independent
audit report for the year ended December 31, 2003. The
change was required due to a typographical error contained
in the previously-filed independent audit report. The
initial report omitted a clause in the opinion paragraph,
rendering that report without an opinion on the consolidated
results of operations and their cash flows for the year
ended December 31, 2003. This has been corrected on the 10-
KSB/A for the year ended December 31, 2004.

CVD Equipment Corporation is responsible for the adequacy
and accuracy of the disclosure in its filings. CVD
recognizes that staff comments or changes to disclosure in
response to staff comments do not foreclose the Commission
from taking any action with respect to the filing. CVD may
not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding
initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal
securities laws of the United States.

If you have any further questions or comments, please do not
hesitate to contact me.


Sincerely,
Glen Charles
Chief Financial Officer
