Whoa!
Actually he was happy with that one, so I let it be. I've already had him clear my driveway twice since then, so it was worth it.

You know the sort of letters I'm talking about? Super thick, geometric, filled-in counters. But instead of filling counters you could separate letters down the middle, as in knocking out a space down the middle of the capital U in KUTRITE.
- Yeah I think it's a great Idea. I'm going to play around with it later today. Thanks for the help gramme.D_Dot

I think a strong typographic logo would do the trick. No need to give a visual hint if the service he offers is written under.

Another thing you could try is to draw blocky, stencil-ish letters where the K is made of a thick vertical rectangle and two triangles, then make the other letters harmonize in style. I usually hate the neo-geometric look, but the forklift in that pic has some strong geometry to it, especially the orange bucket which is a triangle in profile.
- I tried making a K by mirroring an outline of the loader in profile, but it looked odd. maybe I should revisit...D_Dot

I disagree, I would totally re-draw the K. It's too curvy and bears no resemblance to the rest of the logotype. The idea isn't too bad but I think it can be subtler. In fact, I think all you might need is to make the arm and leg of the K be separate (using a typeface like Univers where this is already so would help) and make the arm/leg shape orange. Ken ye?

Yep, K needs some work...

not much more. logos for these kinds of companies tend to be very minimal. blocky. easy to read from a mile away.

Skid is shit in Danish :D sorry, no I don't like the "K" at all, this needs more work. I don't mind the font for the rest of it.

as for the K, i think it's spot on. it looks JUST like the front of the machine. lighten up the stroke on the circles and it might not look so "done in 10 seconds"
