Please redirect me to the moderator or the best area in the forum for this post if this isn’t that location (for example, I was thinking possibly the memorabilia section).
I’m looking for some pre-production input. I am beginning a small startup composites manufacturing company. We’re about to produce some carbon fiber drink coasters. And yes, I know there’s lots of people doing those but ours will be different. We’re going to engrave them with different designs, including 4 of the sigils from the classic Star Wars films (which is how I found the Original Trilogy forum in the first place). I’m preparing the campaign right now but before I launch it I wanted to check with experts like you guys to make sure the sigils I’m using aren’t too controversial (I’m sure there’s always bound to be some level of discontent).
First let me show you how our coasters will look in the non-Star Wars just straight carbon fiber version:
Now here’s a look at the version we’re going to produce with a top layer of Silver Texalium (kind of a nice contrast) 
We’re producing this special caddy for storing and artfully displaying any set of our coasters:
And while I don’t yet have any actual cut examples of the Star Wars versions of the coasters, I can show you the conceptual art files. We’re keeping overall shape as the basic hexagon since we like that it represents the carbon element. However the design on the face of the coasters would look quite different. Check them out below (it might help if I mention that the white portion is the area that would be machined away in our version).
We’re also planning to make these with the classic Star Trek Starship Enterprise Crew Member badges (4 in total)
