Custom Image Weathervanes by Tom Johansson

For the weathervane image that you would like to have, we have Tom Johansson ready to plasma cut your image from steel.

Your procedure to follow:
Attach your image to an email to me -- mark@calgarycupola.com

I will then forward that image by email to Tom Johansson. Tom will sketch that image to match the 30" weathervane hardware. Tom has the measurements for the aluminum weathervane arrow that the image will be mounted on. After Tom and I have agreed on the art work, I will send the sketch image back to you for your approval.

With your approval, we will take the process to the next step which is cutting steel. The steel image would be approximately 13" on the arrow.
