also got the front of my bar done.. i had this design in mind for it, so i went to making it. 3" orange stripes, and the HD bar and shield made out of diamond plate with a wood backer painted black. i drew up the logo free hand (came out pretty decent for free hand) and cut with a jigsaw

still have to wrap the stripes around the side yet, but it was getting late so i called it a night

cut to size, made sure i accounted for over hang.

held in place with some clamps, then beat down the edges with a rubber mallet.

 

then wrapped it under and screwed it in.

How much did it run and where did you get it? I'm thinking I want to do this to my barn workbench

Did you go with the black and orange tiles and stick with the Harley theme?

 

i did not, figured it would be a little busy and over the top with black and orange floor.

 

i did a graphite (dark grey) border, and the center is alloy (silver)
