Spring into Action with Customisation from Cooke Brothers
March 2024
As Easter approaches and spring starts to actually, well, spring, we’ve got our creativity into overdrive with this Easter Bunny hinge.
While it might not be all that practical as a hinge. It is a good example of the bespoke, custom-made products we craft right here in our manufacturing facility in the Midlands.
With a heritage dating back to 1872, Cooke Brothers has a long-standing tradition of British craftsmanship. Our Easter bunny hinge, like many of our bespoke creations, was brought to life using our in-house laser cutting and punching machine. This technology allows us to produce small, one-off batches – including single prototypes – with the flexibility to tweak designs along the way to bring your vision to life.
How the Easter Bunny Hinge was Made
So, how does the magic happen? The Easter bunny hinge is crafted from 1.5mm thick material and a 6mm bar on our Cooke Brothers laser press. This machine not only cuts the bunny shape but also curls the knuckle in a single process, providing a truly satisfying experience for onlookers. The pin is then seamlessly integrated, all in-house at Cooke Brothers.
But our customisation capabilities don’t stop there. With our laser etching machine, we can add personalised touches like logos or messages to further tailor your products. Our multi-function laser punch press ensures high-quality machining from start to finish, handling tasks like riveting, drilling, welding, tapping, finishing, and folding.
