    Default forum mugs?

    I have pm'd a few mods and admins about these but none have answered me as of yet so I thought I thought I'd post it here. I was wondering if the forum had mugs? If not would it be worth making mugs for the forum. I could supply if needed for a cheap price. Or if there not in big demand could I use the logo to make myself one, I would still like to make myself one if no one else wants one? Looking to hearing from you all on your opinions.
    Cheers,
    Matt

    G'day Matt,
    I'll pass your request on up the ladder, and we'll see how many need another "mug" in their shed

    Yeah which ones.... Give me some names.
    None of the Administrators or moderators have received anything from you.
    Me, nothing. Watson, nothing. , nothing. Groggy, nothing.DJ.s Timber, nothing.DavidG, nothing.jmk89, nothing.Big Shed, nothing. Jim Carroll, nothing.

    If any others have heard from you they would have let the rest know and to date there's nothing from anyone.

    I know someone who could make nice hand made ones!

    We could have some of those sayings off the Shed t-shirt thread. Something like. "Old turners never die. They just turn in their grave"?

    What do you call cheap Matt?

    Minimum quantity?

    Cheaper for quantity?

    Ultimately it's up Neil to approve the use of his logo, so maybe a sample to show the quality of work for him to have a look at it.

    I like the idea, and if all goes ahead, I'd probably take a couple. Keep it simple... a plain white mug, forum logo with the web address underneath.

    Watson yeah I know a mug in a shed is a bit weird of an idea but most drink tea or coffee.

    Ubeaut- I pm'd you and rufflyrustic. I sent the pm's last week.

    Yonnee- There is no minimum quantity

    I could get them done for $9.00ea

    And of course it's cheaper for a bigger quantity.

    Also is that the ettamogah pub in your display picture.

    What's the quantity that drops the price?

    Yup. Spent 8 days driving the family (kids 6 & 9) to the Gold Coast July '09. Took pics of Landmarks along the way, mostly with the car included "to prove we were there".

    Generally the price drops at 10 and then drops again at 25, then 50 and etc.
    The price drops down $0.50ea for 10-15 and then another $0.50ea for 26-50. I might be able to get the price down a bit more if I get enough of a small or large order.

    I like the drive to the Gold Coast, is quite a nice drive I say. Went there '08 with the parents and sisters. I also love the ettamogah pub, im about 30mins-1hr away from it and visit whenever I can.

    Nothing received from you by me either PM or email. Heard from Wendy (rufflyrustic) a few hours ago and she informs me that she was notified, but been so under the hammer she didn't get a chance to notify me or pass it on to anyone else.

    I always answer all PM's and emails as many as 20 - 30 or more a day.

    Got to remember the forums are manned by volunteers and most have other work that comes first. Wendy has a massive work load and hasn't been able to do much on here for a while.

    Would you please check your sent items for me to make sure the pm to me was definitely sent. If it was, there could be a problem somewhere with the PM system. Be surprised if there is though, most likely inadvertently unsent.

    Any how I can't see a problem with organising a mug or 50 for those who want them. Send me a PM with your idea and details and we'll go from there.

    Cheers - Neil

    I could make 'em for $15 if you want nice hand made ones. Make a stamp for the logo.

    Did someone call me? oh another mug. I'd be in for a TL handmade. I have a policy to only buy handmade if its available. (Down to mass production)

    I'd be in for a TL one, and a sacrificial shed, mass produced one.
    If you find you have dug yourself a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.
    I just finished child-proofing our house - but they still get inside.

    I sent you a PM ubeaut.

    And the mugs I make aren't mass produced, I do individualize each mug for the person who wants one
