I was just showing what I've built over the past couple years... Since I can't paint a machine
or rebuild a compressor maybe I could help with rebuilding logos, I would help anyone in rebuilding
or make a logo to restore a machine...(as long as it didn't get crazy) I know I will need a lot
of help down the line when I get into restoring my machines.

Even my stick figures look deformed, so I am always in awe of talent. Nice work Eric!

Eric - I don't know how expensive it is to design and then create vinyl decals....  but if you get bored how'd you like to tackle a Squirt logo?  I've searched the internet with no luck and the new machine would benefit from a good polish and some decal bling.

Hey Eric - beggars can't be choosers '<img'> so I'd take whatever became available.  I've searched the web and can't find any decals for sale or even other images to use as models.

       Just had a customer who would seriously consider buying a machine from me if
it were re-done using Mountain Dew graphics .....his lifelong favorite beverage.
       I remember the Hillbilly graphics being shown and discussed here on this site, and I really liked him .....but can't view it here anymore? Eric (or anyone else), do you have the HillBilly photo and willing to work with us privately to print this guy on Vinyl? $$$
       If not, I will try to sell my customer on a more modern Mtn Dew logo for this machine, but I don't think it will be nearly as unique for his motorcycle shop..

Glen,
Send me a PM of a good time and number to call. Have a few MD signs, bottles and such that we should be able to pull a decent image.
Good motivation for me to get going on my V-56 ST can machine that is slated for MD graphics.

very cool, if someone could make them in vinyl there would definitely be a market.

   Thanks MZ and Creighton......I am going to run some of these photo's past him. I think he will be thrilled with the Hillbilly theme which wasn't his request, but it was my suggestion!

Eric,

Nice job! I might need to hire you for some Cole Spa / Apco logos for my cup machines. Having a hard time getting a Cole Spa logo off anything, but have the Apco Soda Shoppe logo.
