    Default Seeking a fraternity emblem pattern

    Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving Day!

    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.

    Capt. Bruce,

    Did you try a search on Google? Your pattern may be out there hiding.

    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.
