\"Stokes<\/a>
\nProduct:\u00a0<\/strong>Swift-Cut 2500 with Hypertherm 65.<\/p>\n

Stokes of England is a Shropshire based blacksmith workshop that specialises in making high-end decorative metalwork. \u00a0Their diverse offerings range from hand-forged ironware to bespoke fencing and ornate candelabras for customers all around the world. Their breadth is wide and their motto reflects that: \u201cYour imagination is our limit.\u201d \u00a0Don\u2019t believe them? \u00a0Just ask owner Chris Stokes, whose dedication to his craft is readily apparent from the moment you start talking to him.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A firm-believer of great quality and UK-manufacturing, Stokes wanted a way to alleviate his work load without compromising on quality. \u00a0When he was introduced to Swift-Cut through a friend in 2013, he was still cutting weathervanes and other silhouetted pieces by hand, which resulted in a quality product but was time consuming. After travelling to see a Swift-Cut CNC Plasma Cutting table in action, he \u00a0saw the potential of owning one. \u00a0Their machine was installed in November and it has played an important part in complementing their hand-forged work ever since.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Their Swift-Cut 2500 is now currently used in the shop on a number of metals, including bronze, stainless steel, and copper, and is programmed to cut pieces that were previously created by hand. \u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s reduced our man hours considerably,\u201d Chris said, \u201cWhich thereby makes the price less for customers.\u201d Win-win. \u00a0It also brings a sense of control to their method as they can easily cut parts when they need them, rather than holding onto a lot of stock just in case. \u00a0Word of Stokes quality metal cuts is spreading\u2013 \u00a0from clock faces to hooks, other companies are now coming to them to get their metal cut, too.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Just as the Stokes motto is \u201cYour imagination is our limit,\u201d the Swift-Cut machine falls in line and \u201cProduces what we want, when we want it,\u201d Chris laughs. \u201cIt\u2019s fantastic. And I love the colour red. I just think that\u2019s brilliant!\u201d \u00a0 Brilliant. Just like the work at Stokes!<\/p>\n
