Yes, it needs the ear protection. Not necessarily because of the fans in my intel3 dual core, but because of the spindle speed and the vibrations when cutting hard wood.

When will we have the LCNC Logo with a plasma torch ????

I revisited the logo version I modified from other guy. I felt that I didn't do eyes well, and I really wanted to improve endmill. I had no time back then, but now? Plenty of time! So I recreated the logos again, this time with very good endmill (very realistic looking but 100% vector!) and corrected eyes. ZIP file is included with SVG.
Hope you guys like it!

der Bohrer sieht sehr gut aus!
Wenn ich das Bild verkleinere sind die Konturen vom Bohrer nicht mehr so gut zu erkennen.
Auf dem Alten Bild hat man das besser erkannt.

the drill looks very good!
If I reduce the image, the contours of the drill are no longer so well visible.
On the old picture you can see it better.

Ok I will play with stronger color gradients later

Indeed outline of the mill could be a little stronger... And IMHO, the ones of chips a little less
Also, the glasses leg could be a little thinner.

Posted a message in #linuxcnc-devel to ask devs what think about adding it to source tree...

About location in tree, logos are at repository root ATM, so make a PR there if you want to.

OKAY! I have taken in suggestions, and found original SVG! I was still meh on original, since while it is certainly better than remake I have been using, it still had problems.

So I decided to make sort of hybrid of both. Chip is slightly darker for contrast, Chip has more modern goggles. I have reshaped some of body and beak for better look.

The endmill now is lighter, and have strong black borders!


Left is old Chips, right is recreation. Middle is brand new one. As you can see, it is mostly same as left original.


Mascot with endmill.
