Hi,
I'm looking to get a new logo (maybe a few) for one of my guitar cabs. A few logos are in bad shape and I'm going through my gear and wanting to renew things. Can anyone help. Here's a pic of the exact logo I'm wanting to make. I can provide all measurements.

Steve,
I can send you all the dimensions. It's attached by two pins that come off the back located where the "X's" are in this pic. It's a "dayglow" orange color. I'd like it just like the pic.
How big is it and how many do you want? We'd like to take a look at it also.

What do you want it made from?
it's aluminuim.
anyone else wanna qoute it?
This looks like a good candidate for a Urethane casting if you don't mind plastic. We can make a 3D CAD model of this part and use it to CNC the mold pattern of the logo for you. Then, we make a mold from the master mold pattern and we cast all the logo plates you want.
Material would be a black ABS like plastic. Orange would be artisan painted.
Advantages:
1) You own the 3D CAD model (STL format) for future use (including machining Aluminum logos)
3) CAD model can be scaled for different sized logos to be made using the same process.
2) If you are needing more than one, plastic cast logos are relatively inexpensive compared to machining.

Thats what I was thinking too. Since the CAD data will have to be generated anyway, a urethane cast or even SLA for only one or two would be the way to go.

I was thinking 3D Scanning the original may be a good way to generate the CAD file if it is in decent shape and can be removed from the guitar cabs without damage.
I just invested in a 3D Laser Scanner and I am looking to try this process: Scan the part to an STL file, use a Z-Corp 3D Printer to make master, and then mold/ cast in Urethane.
I could do the machining or just provide the 3d model. Shoot me a PM if you are interested.
Thanks

The logos were orignally glued in and I'd rather not try to remove them as the logo can bend very easily. If the whole process was relatively cheap to mold a plastic logo then I might do that, but I'd rather but back the metal logo's on the cabs.
