I made a stamped metal motor dataplate anyone interested ?

While I had the cover off my 48cc grubee roundhead clutch linkage, I looked closely at the little Yuan Dong metal plate that said the motor is a 48cc/2hp engine. I figured the plate might hopefully save me from excessive harrasment someday. Unfortuately the important info is only painted on. I decided to make a more durable, official looking tag as replacement. I have an embossing press which makes tags used on foundry patterns. The raised letter are pressed into an aluminium strip. The one I made for my motor is 1/2 inch wide by three inches long. The ends are curved and punched with a hole where the plate can be riveted on. Double stick andhesive such as car emblems are mounted with or epoxy could also be used. If it is okay with Tom, Augidog and forum policy, I will make these available to forum members for a small fee to cover materials cost and mailing. Since I wouldn't know what size engine you actually have, I'll have to make them all say 48cc hehehehehehe!

Psuggmog, how can I pay you the money for the plate? Could I pay you through Pay Pal? Also if you could, could you make the plate so it says 1.5 horse power since that is the leagel version in New Jersey along with the cc you have? I you couldn't that would be alright though.

For $5 you can go down to Harbor Freight and get a metal stamp set. I stamp the mag covers on my bikes "35cc" for Oregon. Never been stopped though.

Great offer psug, thanks. I've been hand stamping little brass plates with different ID tags but haven't been at all happy with them. These are AWESOME!!!

Only an even can be an even number. 5 is odd!
 
And so am I! :)
That's why I phrased it like that, just to be odd and difficult! :devilish:
Take it easy fellas!!!
