Title: Gotta question for everybody..
Post by: MadPlumbarian on February 10, 2015, 05:33:25 AM
Ok, here it goes.. I got my sling bag a while back and I did a lot of custom work to it in order to support some company's, I put a nice size panel on the front to put some patches and pins, I've already got a few, and I emailed a few others to see if I can get any more, so my question to you all is who else do I ask for any pins or maybe small patches? I've already got my Victorinox, and I've asked,
Leatherman,
Case,
Gerber,
Surefire,
Fenix,
Maglite,
And a few others, some in which are sending, and others who don't even have anything made, so who else do I ask cause I'm having a brain fart? :think:

Received a package today, pretty fast for being shipped out Monday. But the one thing that both me "and the wife" agreed on is it looks pretty BIG for just a pin!

Well, this is what came, and yet all I asked for was a pin. A calendar, keychain, hat, a coaster, and the pin, hey I'm not complaining, I've used their tools for over 20yrs. The only thing that I'm not going to use is the calendar, cause well the wife wasn't for it, I put it on the most kid friendly pic for the forum >:D so I hung it in the kids room, lol, hey, he's turning 15, best part is he has yet to notice it.. :rofl:

Yeah, I'd say so! A few others are supposedly sending pins so we'll see. As for tools I was going to write kobalt, even lowes, but I told the wife and she looked at me with not so nice look! (I used to work for them) but still I like kobalts tools, snap-on I never had, craftsman I did :think:
Fishing, naa never was a big fan, but was very good! Never really had a particular hobby, well besides models or r/c cars. As for real name its on the one patch, along with some other info, and I even had my JR that you see below made into a patch that is on the bag.. Although not the forum name :think: but that would take up a lot of room.

Thanks, at first I was so for the digital camo, but someone on here said black/red was better, so when I got the new bag I went with black, then when I had the custom patches made I said black/red, so needless to say I think I'm done with the camo!

Had some time to kill and I had me an idea lastnight about getting some extra room for any pins or patches, so I did! Went from a 4-3/4"x2" to a 4-3/4"x4" plenty of room for a name tape(thanks for the idea NKlamerus), if it fits? I don't think MADPLUMBARIAN will fit in 5"?

Probably depends on where you order it from. If you order from a small town online shop you can probably just put "make it fit within these dimensions" in a special note section.

Oh I agree, it's one of the most detailed ones I've seen, I'm sure if I even ran the knife sharpener over it a few times and broke the pins off the back it would make a good letter opener, lol. But I wouldnt,

Thanks, it looks kinda lonely being the only sticker on that side, lol.. Funny thing is it was by mistake! I originally put a CRKT sticker in that corner, but I found a smaller one that would fit where you see it now, so I took the other one off, but the "R" was just calling my name. So I took everything else off, trimmed up the "C" in order to make it my custom JR initials.. :D
