This grill badge effort has been an amazing process! Within a few short weeks we were able to come up with a design, generally agree on it, and get it put into production. What is even more amazing is that everyone jumped in and placed orders and posted payments. When this effort started I was a bit nervous than the badges wouldn't be accepted and that I would sit on a pile of them. Exactly the opposite has happened. I have run out within days of making them available. I actually feel badly that they are sold out.
I am deeply humbled by everyone's kind words passed along in the orders and messages we've exchanged. I am also impressed with everyone's actual commitment which has been reflected in action! I only hope that our badges will be of the highest quality and meet everyone expectations. This a truly worthy collection of capable and passionate people. here on the board. I hope this tradition lives on for many years to come.
As I mentioned in the Order Thread, I personally have 4 extra badges. I want to hang on to them until I have fulfilled the current orders (in case of defects, shortfall, etc.). However, it is possible that I could be convinced to part with a few more of them if it will make someones life complete or if they are willing to trade a real coupe for it. :roll:
Anyway, send me a PM if you need to discuss this with me.
Several of you have expressed interest in similar exercises for T-Shirts, Hats, Patches, etc. This sounds like a fun thing to do. I'll be happy to help carry such a torch again after I complete the badge effort.
Rust will not prevail as long as we persist!
