If I was a bit crazier I'd create entire fonts based on those. The BLACKHAWK and Porto - Power text I did from scratch. The solid black made it easy to select in Photoshop and cut to a layer. Next, I used a black ink pen to color in all the black, then scanned the print. After cleaning, I scanned it then printed it out larger than the scan.

I took this (image before attempting any cleaning) and made this Ī couple of others I've done from rather poor images of originals. Since most of the brand-labled copies of this lathe use the exact same charts and other things like the graphics for the feed direction, I can use good photos of any of them then add in the Frejoth logo (color changed as needed).
