Couldn't remember if I posted this or not! I'm an ME in a group of programmers and EE's. They used to tease me about the hammer thing (old mechanical engineer joke). I was having a particularly frustrating day in the shop one day and tossed my hammer. Then the idea of Flying Hammer Brand popped into my head. Now its official!

It is abot 2' wide. 1/4" MDF. Cut with CNC router. Acrylic craft paint. The red glow is from a string of LED's encased in silicone for a neon effect.

I also made an aluminum plate for the CNC table with the logo on it. Can't find a pic of it....

I like it! And LEDs sure are nice compared to fluorescent.

(Maybe paint the wires the wall color?)

Haha! I like it! Nothing like having your own emblem :D

At work, we gave our new IT guy a welcome gift, a bronze claw hammer that has been kicking around the shop forever - useless here as there is no spark danger.

So we labeled it "hard reboot, authorized use only" :D

Cool logo. Have a branding iron made to sign your work!

Love the effect of the LEDs! You should get hats and shirts made too.
