I've got the same problem with mine, i took it to a local engravers and they said it could be done if i knew what font it was. I think i've found the font but i haven't been back since. I will get round to it eventually but there's no rush and i can't be bothered.  ???

What type of Tuf Neck stem ?
I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts :)

I could do it if I re drew the logo  . The text would be easier than the tiger but it could be done.   :daumenhoch:

Here was a few we tested with  :daumenhoch:

The tiger might take some doing . But the text one should be easy enough .  :daumenhoch: the small DK logo you can see Is on a 10mm square .  ^"^

Mad busy at the moment at work but I'll get one of my lads to re draw them .

I'll do some testing .  :daumenhoch:

I've got a few tiger stamps I can copy Steve .  :daumenhoch: I'll have a go .  ;)

If anyone has a good example of the the one Dordy and Andy have I could do with a photo ( with the font height's) or a rubbing I can take some sizes off .  ::) please .

The one in my photo Carl was MarkyP's cap, i had it here a while to try and get it copied. The engraver i was going to use happened to go to OZ for a month at about the same time Mark needed his cap back.

I tried to do a rubbing with various things but the engraving on his was just too light to show up as Marks had been polished a bit too much aswell.

I'm sure i can measure the letters that are there on mine but someone may need to measure the patent pending bit.

I'll get Mark to take a straight on photo of his and tell me the letter sizes  :daumenhoch:

That's all I should need .

The only reason i didn't take a straight on photo was my ugly mug was reflecting in it as it looked like a mirror, at least with Mary you're getting a pretty boy in the reflection  :LolLolLolLol:
