Louis Luu Posted January 15 Author Share Posted January 15 3 minutes ago, Vic Valencheck said: Louis, I measured again and I got 23.88 mm for the decal diameter and 29.30 mm for the blade center diameter. I've bought water slide paper from office max in 11in sheets. Yeah....just figured out how small these things were. Easier for me to just order them precut like a sticker. I just tried to call and someone picked up....something about "Not interested in time share". I had to explain I was not trying to sell anything but trying to get a hold of you. Here is my thought and problem, the sticker is really small....I just realized this. Wondering if you can provide the diameter for the center where the thing comes through so it does not rip. I can order it with the center already precut. These sticker thing is all brand new to me and will need to learn. Trying to cut the middle would is all thumbs for me and most people I'm assuming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use what you want and send the rest to George Durbin to distribute and generate funds for AFCA? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your standard picture file....with whatever format you want (Tiff; jpeg; png). I can send you the one with the 1 inch. I would just print it out on regular paper, cut it and see if it fits. If it fits.....then I can send you a whole sheet if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could but better to have picture file. The picture I posted is just a screen shot. Either way. If you want the file, just send me your email and I'll attach it.

Vic Valencheck Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I got the email but I had to open up the file on my pc. I'll have to get a measurement for the center shaft. You had called my house this afternoon. That was my wife that answered. Call me on my cell phone if you need to get a hold of me. 216-509-4010 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said even he was surprised I made that badge. No big deal. Glad I could help in any event. At least in the future, I will know to order precut stickers online.

Vic Valencheck Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 If you touch it with a small screwdriver it flakes off. Hard to tell how it was put on there. Don't think it was painted on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vic Valencheck Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Hey Louis, I think your file is going to work. I printed it out on a piece of ink jet paper and cut it out. I'll print it on waterslide paper when I get the blade cleaned up. Here's what it looks like? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darwin Costello Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Hi Vic, my name is Dar Costello, and I was the person that talked with Louis about reproducing the Made-Rite badge. If possible I would like to see if I could secure 2 of the newly created Made-Rite badges. I sincerely appreciate the job you guys did on the badge, IT LOOKS GREAT. I have been trying to get in touch with for the last couple of days, since Louis informed me it was done. I just rejoined the AFCA, and they wouldn’t allow me into this forum till today. Please let me know if it’s possible to secure a couple of badges. Thanks Dar Costello Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The badge was not a big deal. I did need a good picture. Luckily, you had one to go by so no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
