heres an alloy badge i made...

 

 

 

it was a quick rush job but does the job!

 

i cut out the letters in alloy. masked the tops, araldite'd them on the backing plate, then primed, painted and lacquered it!

 

this will be bolted onto the tool box lid with 4mm bolts

the handle bars where rusted about 2" from each end due to the end inset bits. so i machined up a couple of new ends, and a nice finishing bit on it... i'll let a couple of pics do the talkiing

 

 

 

 

the end 2" is solid bar inserted into the trube handle bars, then welded all the war around, flatted of and ploished up a bit. this wont be visible with hand grips on but wanted it to llok right.

 

the handlebars have since been blasted, etch primed and painted!
