Hi all, I'm definitly not a designer like you guys. I'm a technician.I love the fedora logo and I thought i can laser the logo on little stainlesssteel plates.WNr. 1.4301 (X5CrNi18-10), AISI 304 (V2A)material thickness between 5 and 15 mmextra fine polished, for a noble look I tried to import an svg. the problem is that this wouldn't be conform to mymetal laser machine (and other major laser-machines which is used in thisindustry sector). i can import it, but i will miss my 0-polyline and i can'tdefine one or import one from svg.my laser will cut a square in the size i resized the logo.another problem is that there is no seperation of "f" and "8" so the middleplates of 8 will fall out and i have 3 pieces (2 middleplates and themainplate). So I had to design my own from scratch, because I have a these problems withthe original logo. This is my first try and I draw it in less than 5 minutes.fedora has (principally) a very easy logohttp://cassmodiah.fedorapeople.org/fedora_cad001.pngThe center of the logo is the center of the "f-cross" - outer circle o radius 125mm o radius on the round edge 25mm - inner circles f/8 o inner radius 35mm o outer radius 50mm o flat cutting is 15mm * o radius on round edges are 5mm/each (of course) - the seperation (f/8) o radius 7.5mm 0 distance between circle centers are 15mm * * I selected 15mm for the minimum distance of all laser-cuts, because it would be more exact. the distance between the cuts should't be less than the material thickness. btw this would make the plate logo more stable. (it can be fallen down or you can try to press the inner-plates out with your fingers, you will fail... :) My only problem is:You can recognize: "this is the fedora-logo."but it hasn't the same aspect ratio and the strong separation (to keep themiddle in it).I'm sure I would tresspass against the guidelines, if I will laser thison a stainless steel plate :-( , or not? -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen aus dem schönen HainzellSimon Wesp The G in GNU stands for GNUhttp://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SimonWesp_______________________________________________design-team mailing listdesign-team@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/design-team
