3D Printer?

Quite correct Tony, we are a technical site, so we need to use the right terms of reference for our readership, also on a technical note, I garner from the T5 forum one size fits all, so both male and female members will feel comfortable wearing these...

Or as my British Dr. And personal friend used to say " one size fits none properly" JIM

Although I agree the keyring would be a great idea, I would say there isn't the demand to get them produced cost effectively

@hard top Print HT fitting kits?

Cut-tec.co.uk or lasermasters.co.uk

I think we need to have something symbolic, something along the lines of a team jersey to easily identify the forum members at a glance at large gatherings. Back when I was in a van club we had jerseys and t-shirts with our club names on back. As pres. I was head coach, Joan was Asst. Coach and Damon was waterboy. Boston Green would be nice!! JIM

Apply some Dog oil...

??????

??????

It's a muscle rub called Dog oil used after sports to massage those aching limbs, it is a very old recipe and was originally formulated in Yorkshire for massaging race dogs (greyhounds) following a race, later for horses, it then started to get used by athletes, but it's name is derived from its first use.

Cool idea Jim. I've just spent an hour on Google and can't really find anyone who produces decent custom keyrings. Either all too small, or minimum order of 100...

I'm thinking I may need to locate a company who can custom laser cut them from a template - not found anyone to do that either yet

Ask @Southernboy ?

There's a place down here in Brighton that specialises in low volume laser cutting including some metals. Something to do with the university IIRC.
Let me have a swift Google...

Hi y'all,

Just wondering if people are up for me organising some Zorg goodies again? In the past we have done t-shirts, mugs etc. May be able to expand this range to hoodies, caps etc there is enough interest.

If people have specific ideas on what I can look in to then I'm happy to do so (obviously assuming I can find someone to produce them cost effectively!)

For example I produced personalised mugs a while back, and could do another run...

I've not sorted much yet... Got a request in with another supplier at the moment...

 

[GazHyde]

Just got some provisional pricing back from a possible supplier and they seem really competitive. I'm looking at embroidered rather than heat transfer, and that may make them a bit more expensive but probably more durable. The advantage of this supplier is that they do pretty much everything including Tees, Mugs, iPhone/iPad cases, Hoodies. Anyone fancy a ZRoadster.org onesie (model not included)!

Will update you all once I've finished chatting with them.

 

[Chipper3]

Nope

 

[Gail]

The model isn't my type anyway

 

[Grumps]

I'd look a proper dream boat in one of those!

Zorg overalls for @Lee ?

Zorg overalls for @Lee ?

Ah, I've been marketing them wrong then...

*cough* anyone for a pair of Zorg "overalls" *cough*

 

[Chipper3]

Nope

Ok, need some feedback from you as to whether these prices are going to be acceptable to you. As I said before, these will be embroidered on high quality items. Will most likely be a ZRoadster.org logo on the breast, and then a Zed specific logo I'm working on for across the shoulders on the rear. Here are 3 rough prices subject to confirmation.

• Polo Shirt M/F - £20.00 +P&P
• Baseball Cap - £14.00 +P&P
• Zipped hoodie - £26.00 +P&P

So please let me have some feedback before I go back to this supplier and confirm some arrangements. The prices include a small margin to go towards the running of the forum. No point in me moving forwards with embroidery if no one wants to buy them!
