Update: Eagle Bronze, Welding & Assembly Team

Eagle Bronze located in Lander, Wyoming adjacent to the Arapaho and Shoshone Wind River Reservation, has been in business since 1986. The foundry ships castings to clients throughout the US, Canada, Japan, Europe and the Middle East. The sculptural mix ranges from small jewelry-sized pieces through monumental castings in both bronze and stainless steel alloys. In the area of monumental projects, Eagle Bronze provided the following services for the Spirit Warriors sculpture: structural engineering and stress tests, drawings of armature design, mould making, bronze casting and assembly, welding, patina, transportation and installation.

Eagle Bronze has received numerous awards including, in 1991, the prestigious Blue Chip Enterprise Award, a national award sponsored by the National Chamber of Commerce. They were featured on two different segments of “Good Morning America” and “Nation’s Business Today”. The foundry is highlighted in a segment of the CBS television program “How’d They Do That?” In 1990 Eagle Bronze received the Governor’s Quality Award for the State of Wyoming.

Eagle Bronze in cooperation with Paintbrush Video produced the documentary video on the Spirit Warriors.
