Vintage Grinder Sticker Reproduction

The paint job is worthy of your sticker, Matt!

Made some Craftsman model number tags. I used to make these by embossing the aluminum, then applying an adhesive back print on top. These were laser engraved matte black aluminum. It makes for an incredible durable nearly exact match. The only trick was to leave a little extra material at the bottom edge so that the embossing machine would be lined up perfectly. Then I trim off that material to make the final tag.

Hello Matt
I found you through a video on you tube. Would you be able to re produce the attached tag?

I can make this without any problem. It will be laser and engraved on and aluminum, and then embossed with the model number. PM sent

Here is a set of labels I made for a restoration of a vintage John Deere #374 trencher attachment.

This was especially tricky because I only had a distorted photo of each label. Fortunately, I knew the size, so did my best to make an accurate reproduction.

These were printed and brushed aluminum and white, and then a clear polycarbonate lamination was added.
