Happy ! In 1991, our was at the American Museum of Natural History in New York to cast and mount the skeletons for both the Barosaurus, it's young and the Allosaurus. This also included constructing the custom steel armatures for the entire dramatic scene.

If you’ve visited the Museum, you’re certainly familiar with today’s Fossil Friday feature: the Barosaurus and Allosaurus in the Rotunda! Rising 50 ft (15 m) above the ground, it’s the world’s tallest freestanding dinosaur mount.How does the huge skeleton of Barosaurus—whose name means “heavy reptile”—stay up? The Barosaurus is built from casts of real bone since fossils are too heavy to support in this way. The original fossils are housed in the Museum’s collections!

It's hard to believe how far we have come in 39 years. RCI has grown from a team of three in 1987 to five in 1995, to over 50 in 2026.

Today we have the largest facility of its kind working with institutions and Museums and theme parks throughout the world and it wouldn't be possible without the hard work of everyone in this picture.

Today is Vimy Ridge day and 2026 marks the 109th Anniversary of the Battle of Vimy Ridge. This commemorative bench, sculpted by Ruth Abernethy and designed by Linda Dicaire, was unveiled last year.

Our team hand-cast this amazing piece at our Trenton, Ontario facility to honor the individuals that fought. This piece is now a part of The Eaton Walkway. The walkway invites visitors to reflect on courage, sacrifice, and the shared remembrance between Canada and France, providing vantage points that overlook the battlefield and the Canadian Memorial.
