We arent selling them(yet). We had just enuf made up for those that attended the Bash. They werent very resonably priced. I will be looking into having official Banners made up for competitions and will look into the hats and aprons at a more reasonable rate. Greg may be able to add more to this.

I would love to, but not yet. I had a batch made up big enough to cover both bashes, and won't let any loose until after that. And the prices were pretty farked because they are embroidered. 2 options. I want to price around some that are just printed, and my OL is thinking of getting one of those sewing machines that do the fancy embroidering. If she does that we can pump out some really nice ones for a reasonable cost.
Given my hectic schedule for the rest of the summer, this will probably be a winter project.
They are pretty sweet aren't they.

Cool. I'll get the cigars.
Proud Papa Mod?
Have we considered setting up a "store" with http://www.cafeshops.com :D
Several forums I'm active with use them for logo'd items like aprons, hats, t-shirts, cups, etc.
I think most of their stuff is b/w but the setup is nominal and it's produced JIT so our overhead is nil.
Just a thought.
Also, do we have the b/w line drawing of the pig and flames? My sign maker buddy could use a copy if we have one available. I'm in the process of dis-assembling the logo into parts so I can make a line drawing but it would be nice to not reinvent the wheel.
Just looking for ways to get Brethren info and stuff out amongst the masses!!

Maybe you can help David design that drainage system he's been installing this year.
Heard he keeps running into buried stuff though.

Phil,
I have a relationship, strictly business, with an embroidery silk-screening company here in Brooklyn. I use them for some events that I run for my local church. Their prices have always seemed pretty reasonable to me. Let me know if you want me to put you in touch with them.

Those fancy embroidering machines are around a couple thousand dollars.
I would be a sewing queen if only I could afford one. :oops:

Don't get ahead of us on this stuff guys. Everything will eventually happen. Appreciate all of the requests and helpful info, but do not want to rush things and pump out inferior stuff.
Dave, as far as our coversation from a week or so ago. I will be able to access my other harddrive this week. I'll finally be able to hook up with my other partner and his computer. I should be able to send you the artwork that I used for the banners and the aprons. That should work until we get something official official official.
Part of the problem of the high price for the stuff we used was I had to buy the actual aprons and hats from the same guy that has the embroidering done. I know that I can get the embroidery done cheaper and on wal-mart bought items and get the cost way down. I also have a neighbor lady that has an embroidery machine.
Bill, did you see the add in the latest bullsheet about the guy that does signs for about $100? I want to contact him too.

Greg,
I have a friend who owns a sign company. And he owes me some favors. Let me know if you want me to cash in.

I'm sure it will take her a few months at first to put your name in all your underwear

Well, we hope it's his name anyway! :twisted:
Just let us know when they are available. You know what they say, you look sharp you cook sharp. Or something like that.
