Hi, which machine did you purchase? Scotland is one of the countries I have dreamed about touring on a motorcycle some day.
I can draw anything for you. I am retired, and I do this for fun. Send me a couple of samples of what you seek, and I will return DXF files for you to cut and to examine. If you are happy with the files, THEN we can negotiate a fee, if we must.
Send samples to customshapes (at) mail (dot) com. <<Type is as a normal email address.

Re: looking for someone to trace logos for £
Here is the logo, which was difficult to fight with, given the number of islands in the original design.
This took me three hours to hand draw, and to make the needed corrections for a firepit cut. It took me about twice as long as I had guessed at the start. Try it just for giggles and let me know if it works for you.
The thing about paying someone to do the art work is that some things are dirt simple, while other things are quite complicated. You should give some idea of what you might expect to pay for something like this. For example, if you had submitted this logo and said, "Can someone draw this for me for $20.00usd?" you might find someone who is willing to do that for the price. However, I would be looking for more compensation for something this intricate. Anyway, this one is a freebie! If you do cut it, I would like to see the finished product!

Measure it. This design will not cut well below about 16 inches in height.
