I installed my data plate today. My buddy Jeff Rasnake made this on his C&C mill. I filled the letters with red paint.

Jesse, I spray painted the plate. Wiped it with a rag, then wiped off the rest when it got tacky with laquer thinner. The hole process only took a few minutes.

Jerold, I'm sure Jeff would be open to doing others.  I think he can make about anything that can be turned into a black and white bitmap.  Here's a picture of what I gave him.

Cool.  Did you paint the entire plate and then sand it down leaving the paint in the low areas?

Dan, Super neat data plate. Would your friend Jeff be open to making others on an individual order basis?

Would he be able to produce other items like outline of B-24 on some similar size oval or rectangle?
