    It was never my intention to knock the person that proposed this idea - I think it's great - unfortunately I don't have the wherewithal to do much about it - organising hundreds of shirts with a logo is a big project and needs resources outside my resources....

    Reading some responses in here would put anybody off even trying to get it off the ground.

    I don't want sleeves.

    I want a T-shirt, not a polo.

    i want a polo, not a T-shirt.

    It's not the right colour.

    I don't like the logo here.

    What about this...

    I think the Major said if enough interest was shown he'd look around for some quotes. No-one expects Neil to do it - at least thats how I read the original post.

    For the how about group
    Neil just get some embroided pockets made and then they can sew ( or get the SHMBO to sew ) on any shirt they want , sleevest , frontlest or backlest
    As for me the idea of a shirt top etc is a great idea and whatever idea you gome up with count me in for a couple
    however I doubt if it will get off the ground as the majority of the " How about one in pink , no sleeves, no collar, or what ever have no idea as to the amount of work , time , etc it takes to organise the manufacture of said items


    As I said I would love a shirt with the forum logo on but what ever Neil or the better half ( cause he has no taste ) decides on will be fine by me.

    Ashore, that is one fine idea . Now, by any chance does anyone have an idea of a rough, back of the envelope guesstimate of a ball-park figure for what it might cost to get a patch design done and then made?

    Don't take this as a guaranteed yes, I don't have that power, but I think the idea is worthwhile investigating a little more.

    cheers

    Personally, I love polo shirts.

    I would go for a black polo shirt, with the same details as are on the cap, on the back of the polo shirt, and simply the UBeaut emblem on the front pocket or above the front pocket. Sorry, but they gotta have a front pocket Also gives leeway for us to have our usernames added to the front if we choose.

    Yes, black is hot in the sun, but it makes the UBeaut and Woodworking stand out a mile away.

    Just my 3 cents

    cheers

    Gotta agree with all that. Especially the bit about the pocket and Black- will go with my bike Leathers then!

    Hey Major don't Panic,
    My son, in Brisbane, owns a screenprinting business called Think Ink. They will print on anything. If you are interested give them a call. Mentioning my name may help

    Polo necks make you look like The Man from Uncle. I prefer a T shirt or tank top.

    Im missing something. Why would we want to buy something to wear around to promote another business. A hat fair enough, but a shirt?

    I'll have 2 please. XXL.
    Don't care what style or colour. The Ubeaut Logo on the pocket and WoodworkForums.com across the back.
    PM me the BSB and Account number and I'l credit your account tomorrow.
    Cheers (I'll be at the letterbox).
