It’s hard to believe I made this simple but cool 24” metal star 10 years ago.. this was back in day when I hand cut everything.. if memory serves me right this one went to a conference room in a bank in Austin.. who knows I may try this little design but with a twist just in time for a Christmas give away. **t

This is the prototype of the trophy’s(4) we will be making to be awarded at the Hanger Hangout on November 11,2023. They will be cut from 1/8”
Aluminum and given a brushed finish .. I’m not thrilled with laser etching so I’ll likely tape them off and paint.. or maybe just leave them blank.. if there are any hand letters out there who want to donate their time for a good cause hit me up. If you think we are spending a lot of time and effort on this half day event in November ….you’re right.. but the Veterans deserve it. **t

You may recall me sharing a little event on Veterans Day at (which I included again). I was struck with a little inspiration and decided to offer my services to to design and fabricate some trophy’s for such a worth while event.. We decided to do a prototype out of cardboard . The final piece will be cut out of aluminum and have a brush finish..we think it’ll give it a simple and elegant look.. So bring you ride and hang out maybe you will take home a little piece of . **t

I have always wanted to use led flex lights and they did not disappoint .. the red pegasus is real glass neon and the one in white uses LED lights at a fraction of the price.. Nothing beats the buzz of real neon .. which do you like … **t
