Testimonial: Rooster Weathervane Above Flag

Hi Robert

We finally got the rooster up yesterday and looks great.

We mounted it through a galvanised steel cap at the top of a 6m (48mm od) galvanised pole with two brackets like the ones used to mount a jockey wheel on a caravan, to the wall and a base support flange. On the end of the rooster shaft was welded two heavy duty washers. One at the end of the shaft and the other about 8 inches higher. These were ground on the external circumference to fit the ID of the pipe and secured by a galvanised screw to prevent it from turning. Then attached a stainless pulley and bracket, some rope and a flag, a rope securing windup lug and that was it.

What an expensive exercise. Steel is so dear but it looks great.

Thanks

Testimonial: Horse Weathervane

Dear Robert,

My horse arrived yesterday and I am very happy with it. Can’t wait until I have it put up on my roof. I also found a handyman to build me a window box. He has said he will put up my weather vane when he comes to install it in a couple of weeks. I will send you a picture when all is done.

Best wishes,
Eva Innes

Dear Robert,

I hope you enjoy the photograph of my beautiful horse. It is the talk of my neighbourhood. Thank you once again. It is wonderful to finally be able to buy something you just want -not need.

Best wishes,
Eva Innes
