Seems like if there was a good set it wouldn't be too hard to make dies out of clay? For small runs it might be worth doing. Not that I have ANY experience doing it!

Emblem cure
John,
We needed to fill the holes and some white paint after some prep got them looking fairly good.
Even did the rotten old Bowlight with the Multi-Surface Rustoleum that seemed to do well on the semi plastic chromed and pitted surface.
Wondering if West System could bu used to pour some Pigment -laden epoxy into clay molds.
The smoother Bellboy emblems will make better molds at the very least since there are not many pits showing anymore.
I have the owner`s artist/Kid doing the lighthouses......let`s hope he doesn`t make it TOO modern.

calling Darrel...
Wondering if Darmandude Darrel's bronze casting source could pour some of these???, then could be sent to the plater for chrome. Another one-off option would be one of the CNC shops with a 5 axis machine to run out of billet aluminum that could be polished, plated or even chromed. I have also discussed the older Bell Boy logo with the water jet guys on a 3-axis machine for beveled edges out of stainless. Will post a price/example if it is reasonable.

Bell Boy Emblems
I,m from Queensland, Australia and would like a set of Emblems for my BB and if I can get a copy of the art work with the sizes then I think that I could get them laser cut in stainless steel and polished. phone 61-7-55781542 or ateam4@onthenet.com.au Anton

Emblems
.said Bud. He called me today and said that he would not be able to duplicate the Bell Boy emblems. He tried. It's too thin and the square corners are not coming out right. The original emblems have been returned to BellBoyBob. Thanks for looking out for fellow glassheads Bob.
Looks like there is a demand for them still. Any other ideas for having the Bell Boy emblems made?
