Forum Window Stickers (For UK based members)

Post by PeteThePen1 »

Dear Steamboating Friends

I have now found a UK based supplier who can do us window stickers for about 0.5GBP each. I am minded to buy 100 or so and then supply any of you who would like some (at cost!). Thus, if you are interested, please let me know.

For our European friends, I am a soft hearted (headed?) bloke and can probably be persuaded to let you have some for some sort of non-monetary swop, or even as a gift for a good sob story.

Wes, if you should happen to be reading this, I would be grateful for another copy of your graphic. I know I have a copy from earlier, but I must have filed it somewhere too safe.

Subversive activities - If I can get these printed up before the SBA Windermere event, are any readers going and willing to offer stickers to attendees? (Unfortunately various family committments mean that I cannot get to any more SBA events this season...)

Regards


Pete

Pete,

Unfortunately I cannot find it. My computer died on me and I thought I had it on a thumb drive, but apparently that wasn't the case.

Best bet would be to find something similar in the sticker maker's font cache.

Sorry I couldn't help,

wes

Dear Steamboating Friends

We have good news on this front. I have found the two photos carefully filed away in a very safe (Silly???) place. I have sent them to the potential supplier for the second time today and hope to get a revised quote on Monday. The first time the server stripped them off my e-mail for some reason, so the quote was a sort of "generic" quote based on not yet having the text.

I hope to have stickers available very soon, though I fear that I may not get them in time for the SBA Layup Supper event.

Best wishes


Pete

Great news Pete.

I don't know how the prices are in the UK, but the ones I had made in 14" and 28" (I think they're 28") only ran me a few dollars a piece.

Good luck

Wes

Dear Wes and Steamboating Friends

We now have Forum stickers in Europe. They have cost a bit over 1GBP each but are 14" long, white lettering for application inside a window. They are actually cut vinyl letters with no backing so thay simply get rolled into place and (hopefully) stick.

Delivery is due any day now. So if you want one, just let me know. SAEs would be appreciated!

Regards


Pete
