[#7367295]

So I've started to get a few orders for my 3D maps of the Malvern's and need to come up with a name for the 'company' so that I can sort out some sort of logo/signature to go on them and so I can set up a website (possibly)
If you don't know, this is what I'm making:

It's a 3D, CNC machined map of the Malvern Hills (other areas to be added hopefully)
A couple of ideas include CN-Scene, AluMap..

What ideas have you got?

Alloy Elevations
Hills for Life (only really works if you make it out of Titanium)
Metal Mountains
Wall hills

Also, you need to machine that wooden frame so the metal bit sits in it slightly.

With a thing like this it's got to be really descriptive tbh because a lot of people who'd like it, or put it in their b&b or shop or whatever, will have no idea what it is. So no CNC or milling or anything. And no metal either because IIRC you can do this in wood too? And not everyone will know what relief means in this context either.

I'd honestly go with The 3D Map Company, it's not clever or witty but it'll do the job better than anything else I can think of. And give it a tagline if you want something clever, just keep it somewhere that it doesn't detract from the actual job.

Though I do like Miniature Machined Metal Mountain Man

Northwinds post seems sensible to me. Hardly any one will know (or care) how these are made so the name should aim to describe the finished product.

Although I do like the cheese factor of 'what a relief!'

Ive no ideas for a name but one of these would be perfect for above our fire place.

Agree with north wind. Keep it descriptive.

As such, I think Bulging Mass would work.

Yeah, I think Northwind has hit the nail on the head. Descriptive of the product not the process..

I claim no credit for the name, you nailed it! I just added some why.

My brother's company is called Solus Technical Services. It's actually a pretty clever stage direction pun, just, nobody but him knows that. And for everyone else, it tells them absolutely nothing. it's a word of mouth business so that's not the end of the world but still.
