I have sent the badges out to George Durbin...he should be receiving them 6/23/2021...at least that is what USPS promises.  George will contact you with payment and shipping.


Please visit new page.

(Sorry for the confusion).  For those who placed their order Here...I will honor the price $50 with free shipping. 

Badges for sale - Buy-Sell-Trade - Antique Fan Collectors Association - AFCA Forums

The new order page is $80 with free shipping...I have to recoup some of my losses.  When you receive your badge and wish to place more, please post in the above link.

....................................................................................................................................................................

Just in case you did not see the message due to lost post from June 13-16, here it is again.

The badge will be discolored due to the high temperature casting and can be remove with polishing.


When you get the badge, feel free to belt sand the  back to level it.  I left plenty of metal in the back for this purpose.  You might want to gently round the perimeter while you are at it.  Please do NOT use a wire wheel to polish.  I like using a dremel with Red Rouge (red rouge is gentle) and wipe with a terry cloth.  I do not like washing off the red rouge completely.  The dark contrast is nice.  The badge will darken a bit with time...some of my badges actually has a nice "brass" tinge with time.

Sorry for the delay...work has been hectic and it is more cost effective if I cast these all at once.  I been making the lost wax mold for several...the only ones I need to finish up are the Hunter and Fortwayne badges.

I'm hoping George Durbin will volunteer to sell these.  If it does not sale...he will most likely make clocks out of them...don't ask...don't even want to know.  Please do not pay until items are picked up....just tell me how many you want and which ones.



Hee heeeee!

Clocks?  Wut makes yo think that!😅🤣😂
Of course I will sell them and mail them!

 Jon...I just wanted to make sure you get the correct badge...no sense in putting an incorrect badge.  I don't mind.

 Lost wax is more tedious but great at capturing details...with minimal shrinkage.  I try to compensate by priming...2% shrinkage rule....no big deal.  Just measure the diameter...spray a tad bit on the edge for shrinkage.  Done.

 I only have the one Rick Powell sent me...I think it will work.  I don't have an 8 inch ECK to compare with.

The ECK badge I got from Rick Powell is 60 mm.
