I had the spacing tight at first and feedback indicated that it looked too tight. So I opened it up a little bit. I could dig out the zip file with the first batch and provide it too!
Just for speed, I tapped on the generic basic red and black options provided in the vector illustration program. Color matching is hard. The shade of red that I see when I look at the V1 logo on my device/screen may not be the same shade that Ryan sees on his or you see on yours. If we find out from Ryan a certain RGB value, or a certain CMYK value, then I can definitely use that. As someone noted, these are most likely going to be either laser engraved or cut from vinyl or pocketed with a bit.
Spacing is the difference.
Whenever the first feedback came in that things looked too tight, I thought then about āmargin of errorā with CNC cutting and the fact that some are probably gonna have to use a small bit in a small space to CNC pocket with, and that played a role in agreeing with that feedback, and opening it up a little bit.
It was just a comment to say why I think it looked different, not really to say whether it should be.
However, for me, if I were going to put something like this on one of my machines, I would want it to be consistent with the overall branding of V1.
Marketing for a company is very important, so from my view, if this were to be an āofficialā set, I would much prefer they fit with the same look/feel/branding of everywhere else on the site.
For a laser, the tighter spacing should be fine.
For CNC CAM, I guess that depends on the scale, but if the scale is so small that the spacing is going to matter, then I would guess they are going to be using a small V bit like the V1 45Āŗ bits or an even smaller angle, and that probably makes it a non-issue as well

Since some prefer the previous (initial) version with the tighter spacing (matching the actual V1 logo more closely), I am providing those as well ā see original post at the top, which has both individual SVGās and then a group zip at the bottom. Iāll call the original v1 and the more spaced out one v2.

Oh, I am sorry, i have no feelings, i was just noticing a difference.
I apologize.
No problem at all. Iām just trying to provide a service as a way to try to give back.

SOT, does anyone have an SVG of Ryanās logo?
My belts are apparently floating in USPS limboā¦par for courseā¦ my custom strut plates took way longer to get to NJ tooā¦ I guess Iām not supposed to finish this buildā¦SO, i guess Iāll put some branding on the sides of my Y-Rail boxesā¦
Side note: I really wish Milwaukee made a corded trim router, then my color scheme would have matched V1Eāsā¦alas, the Kobalt router has made me blueā¦
Happy Sunday!
wellā¦ normally you click the logo on that page a zip file of the full set would download, but itās not working for meā¦
Ok, the DXF set link in there works and brings you to the Github
The SVG is in there with the DXF
TY!.. Is there any issue @vicious1, to me using it on the side of my Y-rail boxes?

Nah, we are all using the Logo and promote the machines. 
Plaster your workshop with it, order 100 stickers. Put them everywhere.
