Job Title Custom Historical Cattle Branding Iron Commission
Company Moore-Hancock Farmstead
Job Location Austin, Texas
This is a commission-based project for the Moore-Hancock Farmstead, a historic homestead museum in Austin, Texas. The work may be completed off-site, but the finished branding iron would need to be delivered locally or coordinated for pickup in Austin. We are glad to provide the desired brand design to interested applicants upon request.
Job Description
The Moore-Hancock Farmstead is seeking a welding student, metalworker, or craftsperson to create a historically appropriate cattle branding iron to be used as a museum replica and teaching object.
We are looking for a decorative-only replica, made of iron. The desired style is an old-fashioned branding iron with the brand on one end, a long metal rod, and a handle on the other end. If possible, we would prefer a traditional round rod rather than a modern square rod, though we are open to discussing what is feasible and affordable.
The Farmstead has specific historical brand designs connected to the site’s history. We can provide a copy of the desired brand design upon request for anyone interested in the project. At this stage, we are seeking pricing and availability for one or possibly two branding irons.
Desired specifications:
Made of iron
Full-size branding iron
Old-style rod-and-handle construction
Preferably round rod if feasible
Historically appropriate appearance for museum use
This commission would support the Moore-Hancock Farmstead’s educational programming and would be used to help students and visitors better understand 19th-century ranching and land use in Texas.
Salary/ Pay Rate
Budget is negotiable based on materials, labor, and feasibility. We are hoping to stay near approximately $150 per branding iron if possible, but we are open to reviewing quotes.
How to Apply?
Please email Andrew Gonzales at [email protected] with a brief statement of interest. If possible, please include:
Your relevant welding or metalworking experience
Whether you have experience making tools, replicas, or custom ironwork
An estimated price range
An estimated completion timeline
Any questions about the design or specifications
A copy of the desired brand design can be provided upon request. Applicants are also welcome to ask clarifying questions before submitting a quote.
