Stihl "log" side cover tags - PUT YOUR NAME DOWN!

[Edge & Engine]

I don't think anybody's gotten theirs yet (we haven't). Any updates?

 

[litefoot]

Having just obtained an 08S, I now find myself in need of one of these badges.

Have they been delivered to Edge & Engine yet?

(yes, I am going to head over to his website right now to check )

Chris,
I ordered more than I probably need. I'll make sure you get one when they come out.

Thanks for the offer - rep sent!

Let me know when they arrive and what the cost is.

Cost? No cost to you. You're due for some payback from the Beg for Manuals thread.

Sorry to go off topic here, but I really must say that the generosity of AS members is truly humbling.

Thanks a ton for yours!

Last I heard Patrick was looking for a VW bus without a VIN plate.

Finally, an answer (or at least SOME form of communication!) today after a couple of angry messages:

Patrick

Yes, we are dragging our feet a bit due to the quantity required, I will sort this out and get back to you with a price and delivery the early part of next week.

Regards

Graham

Not sure what he means by "due to the quantity required" - surely 400 as opposed to 50 just means you leave the cutting machine running a bit longer, you leave the printing press running a bit longer, you anodise a few more batches than usual...
At least he admitted they were "dragging their feet". He does have a nice aluminium business card, though.
For those asking if there will be extra available - yes, there will be a few. I have a list (YOU'RE ALL ON MY LIST!!!! ) of those who put their names down, so I can contact them in due course should they not see the thread I put up - once these are finally made and in my sweaty hands.

I look forward to seeing what "The early part of next week" brings!

Hi Patrick,
Are you disease free yet ?

Hi Patrick,
Are you disease free yet ?

Are you still trying to get rid of those crabs with an ice pick?

I get the impression he's dragging his feet because 400 is a "small" run for him to make? He's probably used to orders in the thousands of pieces.

 

[PatrickIreland]

That's all dealt with! Set fire to one side, then stab them with the ice pick as they run away. Now if I could just shake off this damn case of Scabies, I'll be fine.

No, he's a small company - his place is near my mate's flat, and when I first spoke to him he said they make a lot of small runs for bowling clubs, restaurants, etc - so I'd think 50 or so is his normal size run. Though you'd think he would jump at the chance to get an order of 400 confirmed and out the door!

I liked the way he phrased it - "we are dragging our feet a bit due to the quantity required, I will sort this out and get back to you" - not "we have been dragging our feet and have sorted this out"!
Makes me think of someone with his feet up on the desk, sipping a large Jamesons, thinking "Yeah, must stop dragging our feet all the time - ah well, maybe I'll sort that out next week"

By the way, I'd been thinking I'd just write each forum member's name on the corner of the envelope so I could keep track of them for my own purposes - then I realised that an envelope labelled "Urbicide" might not go through US Customs too well.
I think you'll just be "Urb", in case they think I'm sending a chemical designed to wipe out urban populations...:jester:

We need to thin out the herd a bit. Darwinism just isn't what it used to be. opcorn:

You should change your name to "weapons grade plutonium", see how that goes down. Or just "Anthrax strain #5".

Patrick, don't forget about your buddy Ray.

You're on the list, Ray - it's been in my inside pocket jacket pocket for ages.
I don't mind people who didn't see the original thread asking for one or two, or five, but please make sure that you will give your donation to Cancer Research (or a charity of your choice, or anything good if you can afford it!) if you do want one or two, or want to add a couple to your order.
I just tried to take a picture of the list, but my laptop refuses to bluetooth.

Too much beer I think... AHAHA! Tricked you, there is no much thing as too much beer.

Hard to believe you're Irish. LOL
