[Toymakers] shared another episode of The Rabbit Hole. In this episode they spend most of the time pawing through boxes of donated electronic goodness. What really sparked our interest in episode 044 starting at the 12:46 mark was their amazing new logo proposal for The Rabbit Hole Hackerspace. The logo looks a bit familiar and is indeed based partly on the Hack a Day logo, but this unique and awesome logo also sports the open source hardware gear as well as an evil looking punisher style rabbit.
Sure we might like it a bit more because of its resemblance to our logo; nonetheless this is a great-looking logo and perfect for their hackerspace. We hope they go with it, who doesn’t love evil rabbits? The background to the logo is also a barcode which when scanned takes you to The Rabbit Hole website. [Whiskers] also re-renders the logo to port over to their CarveWright CNC wood router to make up a 3D logo plaque, SWEET! You might remember we did get a glimpse of their table-top CNC router as a Hackaday Hackerspace Henchmen entry.
You can watch all of episode 044 after the break and don’t forget to comment below to let us know if you like their new proposed logo, we do. Maybe we will be reporting on a future “T-shirt campaign” :)
Great design!
Before reading the article i cringed and thought…
“Brace yourselves… a law suit is coming”
After reading, i have to apologize. Thank you for not suing. In times of patents on rounded corners i am a little bit tense.
We were worried about those types of issues too Tobias, but decided Hackaday would probably appreciate that a “hack” was done on their logo in true HaD fashion :)
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, they say, and as long as the lawyers are kept at bay, all is good! Great logo!
This is one cool logo! As I’m designing a logo for my first self-built guitar at the moment, I know it is not easy… I have drawn a bunch of them now and I am not satisfied yet…
Great job!
I would totally buy a ‘Rabbit Hole Supporter’ shirt with this logo.
I really like the logo! It shows off a new “skin” for the hackerspace, as well as support for opensource, and HAD!
If you guys want sue them contact me at

hahaha nice!
My only suggestion would be to outline the gear teeth in white where they overlap the wrenches. It would make the open source hardware logo more recognizable.
As a “Casual Rabbit” (only been to the Rabbit Hole a few times) I really like this logo!
It’s great, I like it.
deym! thats one cool logo..I think hackaday should also have a hack our logo contest eheheh
+1 (more stickers, yay!)
Hmmm, maybe such hacked HaD logos could by part of a HaD Henched Affiliate Space…
HaD-HAS )
im already thinking of putting my labratsgonewild logo with a wrench :p
A wrench in one hand, soldering iron in the other, safety goggles…
