2017 Multitool.org Calendar?
on: October 01, 2016, 12:31:23 AM
It's been asked for many times before,  and I may have a reasonable solution now, so I'd love to hear some ideas on what everyone would like it off a potential MTO calendar.

I'm not saying it will happen, just gathering ideas in case it does.

Sounds like a great idea, there's always so many :drool: photos here, we have a lot of talented photographers taking pictures of awesome tools. :tu:
May it be as the Pattern has chosen.

We would need 12 photos, plus a cover, which I suppose could be any of the inside photos, but as you said, there are so many, we could probably find 13 just as easily.

What about adding some functionality to it ?  :think:

It can include rulers in the borders and conversion charts also diagrams or tips for making simple life hacks (like binding paper without staples or clips, etc.) :tu:

I think there are enough great pics to have a quadrant of pics every month. Maybe a MTO calendar challenge? I also like the idea of tips and tricks throughout.

Legal question: will the manufacturers be okay with their tools being "promoted" in this fashion?

I don't think we plan to portray anything negatively, and is no worse than being permission from manufacturers to make a car calendar.

If they are our photos, the manufactures have no legal grounds to stand on, and even if they did I would imagine they would appreciate what we are doing.

Ideas......

Rustmaster 2017:
12 of Sparky's rusty aquisitions being converted into usable objects whilst inadvertantly setting himself and other stuff on fire

I Blame Kirky 2017:
12 pictures of assorted natural and man made disasters

Monrogue's Carry 2017:
10 months showing the same tool fornicating with other inanimate objects, with a 2 month interlude mid-year while he sends it back to Syph to have the loadout changed again

Year of a Leatherman Tool 2017:
12 months of rust formation

NNR 2017:
6 months of flashlights, alternated with 6 months of self inflicted injuries

SOG's Greatest........ 1996?
Maybe not  :whistle:

Victorinox Evolution 2017:
Same knife, 12 different scale designs

PFRSantos 2017:
This one might be expensive to get made. You have to keep opening 8 different flaps with smileys on before you get to see the words "that's what she said!"

Atwood 2017:
The calendar gets more expensive every time you start a new month, and you have to wait till 2019 to get months April and September second hand off ebay
