Skull buckets

[madhatte]

I have a 6-pt Mac-T, a 4-pt Mac-T, an old Skull Bucket, and a new Skull Bucket. Honestly, I like the newest one best, because the hat is most rigid and the suspension the most comfortable.

Ok...
I have a Skull Bucket and I keep getting the replacement suspension from Bailey's (658 70). They are not real good in my opinion. keep breaking at the plastic fold over mount that holds the clips (and not from falling object). I've gone through a bunch.

Just did it again yesterday

Any sources for a better replacement suspension?

Yeah those ones are garbage.
MSA makes a real good replacement suspension that is rock solid.

I just wish the skull bucket company was still in. Business.

Skull Bucket is BACK IN BUSINESS!

Hows about some samples?

If we had enough stock I might could fulfill that request. Since we relaunched the company the hats are flying off the shelf. We can't keep up with the demand.

Send me your location and I will let you know where your closest dealer is.

Well, a bunch of us are in the Pacific Northwest and close enough to the usual suppliers there.

Also, your website is all kinds of broken. Thought you'd like to know that.

Thanks for the heads up. The site is working fine from my computer here, I just checked it. What is it doing from your end? I will get the issues fixed asap.

Cowlitz River Rigging just received a shipment of Skull Buckets a couple weeks ago.

I looked at the site on both Microsoft explorer and Google Chrome. Looks like it is functioning correctly for all features from here.

Cowlitz River Rigging, eh? I don't make it through Longview all that often, but maybe I'll make a trip.

Try refreshing with the F5 key to see what happens. It is working when I open in Firefox

The tech savvy guys are telling me that your browser is being blocked only allowing the HTML version to load. Thank you for letting me know about this. I will continue to investigate the issue if it is on our end.

Your website works fine here.

I figured we would take it on the chin for that. I wasn't there when that picture was taken so I couldn't complain.

 

[madhatte]

Blocked is possible. Work network is a jerk.

Anything near Tulsa, OK?

Site looks fine from home network.

Next question: suspension. That no-name brand that has been selling tin hats the last couple of years has a pretty good design for the suspension, specifically how the back drops down in two pieces to hug both the upper and lower portions of a weird-shaped nugget like mine. What design are you guys using now? The last "Skull Bucket" branded one I had was OK, better than the old Mac-T, but not as good as the current no-name ones. The big reason I ask this is because protection is great when I get hit, but
suspension is all day, every day.

EDIT: I have examples of all 3 if you need pics

EDIT: oh, and not that I care, but where is the current generation of your product manufactured?

EDIT: for those of you who are wondering, what I am really asking is "why should I buy your 'Made in China' product over the other one I'm already pretty happy with?"

EDIT: make no mistake that I am happy to see competition in the tin hat market. We will all likely benefit from this, especially since we have a manufacturer rep in our midst.
