Custom 3d print hood emblems/badges? - 10/20/23 05:38 AM

Does anyone here do this?
I kicking around a ideal...
Friend has a 2wd 90 ramcharger that will be done in a hot rod theam
Bought a hood that has a 73-74 road runner skin grafted on it
Later will have the road runner decal put on after its had body work and paint done to it......
My thought was....have a gtx emblem made(factory style) but. Have the X changed to a capital R and smaller font amcharger
GTRamcharger......thoughts?

It defiantly can be done but cost prohibitive. The original needs to be replicated in CAD, then modified. The conversion to 3D and printing are going to be the cheap parts. I would suggest you look on sites like " Grabcad" (or similar) and see if there is something to start with. Otherwise it will need to be scanned with a 3d scanner, modified in CAD, then printed...
do you have a pic of the emblem?

Well the emblem I want does not exist
I had a grill emblem for boys 70 cuda. Instead of plymouth. It read ol rusty. And came out pretty good. But I have no way of contacting the person that done the work anymore.
So just as it was custom made this one will be also

i know a emblem would be way cooler.
but you can easily and significantly cheaper have that made in a decal.

if you want shadowing they put one decal on top of another to create this effect.

A decent drawing with accurate measurements is all a guy needs to be able to program and print a part.

photo 1 is a wood replacement someone made
photo 2 is an original NOS part
photo 3 is my drawing
photo 4 is the 3D printed prototype
