I'm seeking a pattern or MPC of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity emblem (see below). I wish to make a plaque for a friend but have not had much success in doing a trace in Illustrator to make an AI file and then into an MPC with ai2mpc.exe.
Before I take the time (long time) to hand copy the key elements as vector lines I wanted to ask if anyone knows a source for a vector pattern or scalable project. Can't find one in the CarveWright Depot nor in the shared MPCs, or at least not by that name.
I'd appreciate any leads or suggestions. Thanks in advance

I made a MPC of this image but the MPC is 9.71MB and too large to post. PM me your e-mail I will send it to you. BJB
I zipped the .ai file I used. There are 346 objects (The lines that carve) in this MPC some of them can be removed to make the file smaller.
