Haha! That's great! Hey, BTW I can carve any of those clipart logos via CNC router...in the event that the club needs customized plaques and things of that nature. I cut, you get to sand & paint...

do you think you could do a "License Plate Topper" out of aluminum ?
if so how expensive would it be ? and what would you need in the way of design ? I've had an idea for quite a while and I'm just wondering if its worth it.

If you send me the vector design, I'll have a good idea about what's involved. I also do 3D laser scanning, so if you have a 3D trinket that you want to incorporate into the design (or some other application - mechanical or decorative), it's a possibility. You can visit my website for the email address to send the artwork.

WOW! great web site, I'm impressed!

My idea is simple but I really don't have it down yet. I'm thinking of something like the club logo done as a license plate topper. Usually these things can be sand cast but I'd think a CNC version in metal would be much more accurate.

I'll try to figure out what dimensions this could be, I also have vector ( eps. ai. ) of the club logo so that wouldn't be a problem.

Best bet would be to CNC machine a master & then have it sand cast, if you know someone who does that. Then you can have a run of them made for the club...etc. I don't think I would want to machine several copies of frames...it would be too expensive in billet AL.
