honda tank badges

Whipped up some new badges for the Honda today. Thanks to Toshi I was able to find some vector art for the various brands that I wanted to merge. http://www.brandsoftheworld.com/ is awesome! I imported the ones I wanted into Rhino and programed an engraving program to cut this out in copper. I'm still playing with the size and placement, but I think I like it. I'll have to play with pocketing and/or completely cutting the logo out to see what I like best, but this gives me an idea of the look. Surprisingly enough the whole process took less than an hour. That means I'm making some progress with the mill!

Yeah, I was thinking maybe it needed to be larger. Now I just need to decide whether to pocket or pierce or engrave....
