Those look like they would cut well on CNC plasma. Maybe out of 12-14G cold rolled or SS. Paint orange or leave the SS brite. I have couple times thought of making some killer aggressive dogs for the 362 or 392 with the 24" bars. Pity I don't have any larger saws. I suppose that instead of the skeletonized look, you could work FHC in there!
Me too but I think the folks who were doing this before that had their connections with making shirts and whatnot don't have them anymore. But I do believe they were trying to get this off the ground again not too long ago or at least I hope they will. I'm running out of wearable FHC garb.
Time passes. People move on. Connections are lost. All intentions are to have the swag shop get back online. As well as a complete site overhaul. Just taking longer than anyone is liking it to take.
I feel bad. When I first joined this site, I ordered a couple of shirts. They took FOREVER to get. I got no emailed purchase confirmation. I sent multiple emails asking for my stuff or to get my money back. I wasn’t rude or anything. I was just a bit frustrated. I never got a response of any kind. My stuff did eventually arrive quite a while later. The shirts are awesome. I’ve basically worn them out at this point. What I didn’t understand at the time how close knit this group was - or the fact that it’s just a few volunteers doing their best to run things. That being said... I’d love to buy some new gear at some point. But I’ll be more patient in the future
I believe that regarding clothing, there was never an inventory to fill orders from. Instead, orders may have been saved up until a critical mass of items was reached, then ordered from the actual company to create them.
I wish i had ordered some earlier in my FHC career. Never thought id enjoy the site as much as i do. The only thing i have is a window sticker given to me by Midwinter a year ago.
This is true what they do for like school wear these days. They don't do over orders unless there's a discount or its a standard shirt or Hoodie. Otherwise it's people like staff that will order their own stuff then the PTA handles stuff that kids and their parents may want to order. No point in having a mass order of things that might change in the next year and it's easier to do it by app now.
There’s a few small mom and pop shirt makers in my area if you guys would want me to look into it? I can at least get prices if I have an idea on how many are interested in shirts I would just need either a file or a picture on what should be on the front/back
I can understand how life changes and the swag shop is in a transition phase. At least I picked up one shirt before it closed down.
