Machine Badges

These are direct-to-metal printed on precision cut 6061 aluminum with a very tough ink on our specialized $75k industrial printers. While they are not originals, we spent a lot of time fussing with the details, pantone colors, etc. to get them as close to an original. Note that the metal is slightly thicker than the original for a high quality installation.

 

Please note that these are not a vinyl sticker stuck to metal which is not very durable, nor are they dye sublimated which will fade with any exposure to sunlight.  They are ink on metal.  We have found that these are as close to the original as we've been able to achieve without mixing silk screening inks ourselves and making them the very old fashioned way (which our research has shown leads to a lot of variation and some colors that fade over time).

 

They will require holes for your drive screws for mounting, but I did not pre-drill those because after looking at dozens of badges, every machine seems to be positioned slightly different. Simply center punch, put some painter's tape over the area to be drilled, drill the appropriately sized hole and you're done.

100% US-made reproduction of an iconic Delta Rockwell image: "Franchised Dealer - Delta Rockwell - Quality Power Tools."

Made out of US-sourced steel and acrylic and fabricated entirely in California.

Early (1950's) Northfield Woodworking Machinery Builders table saws featured 1/4" plate cast aluminum arrows screwed to the base casting above the handwheel. These later changed to mylar stickers through current production. These reproductions seek to capture that original, heavy-duty appearance of those gorgeous cast aluminum arrows.

Laser cut from 5052 aluminum, 0.250" thick. Deburred and clear anodized.  The size of the "bounding box" is approximately 5" x 4.5".

NOTE: these arrows do not have any letters stamped in them - they are all identical. To reproduce the original setup, you would purchase two arrows and stamp "UP" and "DOWN" in them using your own metal stamp set and a big hammer (BFH).

Northfield #4 Table Saw Reproduction "Up & Down" Arrows

These are direct-printed on precision cut 6061 aluminum with a very tough ink on our specialized $50k industrial printers. While they are not originals, we spent a lot of time fussing with the details, color, etc. to get them as close to an original, silk-screen tag as possible without actually silk screening 1,000's of these. Note that the metal is slightly thicker than original for a high quality installation.
