Cutting & Profiling

Pigeon Work is a Coup

The order book has reached new heights at the Scarborough-based RR Engineering with a contract to provide decorative weathervanes for a racing pigeon equipment firm. RR was one of the first companies in the country to buy the Mazak STX Mark II 510 laser profiler to enhance its sheetmetal service, which serves a variety of industries including: transport, power suppliers, shopfitting and sign manufacturers.

Roy Hendry, director of RR Engineering, said: "These weathervanes are intricate and artistic and show off one just one element of our vast range of skills." The work involves sculpting the pigeon figures that sit on the points of the compass by precision laser profiling.

The figures and supporting pole are constructed in mild steel, and can be fixed to either a roof or wall.
