    Argent, a shake-fork Sable cantoned between in chief a cogwheel and in each flank a four-bladed propeller Gules, Above the Shield is placed an Helm befitting his degree with a Mantling Sable doubled Argent, and on a Wreath of the Liveries is set for Crest a unicorn's head Argent armed Or langued Gules charged of a cogwheel Azure, and in an Escrol over the same this Motto "ALTERUM NON LAEDERE".

    These Arms were granted by the Lord Lyon when I achieved recognition as a Scottish Armiger.

    The shakefork and unicorn's head derive from the Arms of the Cunningham family.
    The cogwheels and propellers were suggested by David Sellar, Lord Lyon King of Arms, the cogwheels to represent the engineering pedigree of my father, grandfather, great grandfather and great great grandfather Cunningham and the propellers to represent that my father was an aircraft engineer and that I was a private pilot.
    The motto, which translates as To Injure Nobody was originally chosen by me when I was admitted as a Scottish Notary Public in 1976.
