Cory Trese or fallen. Is there a chance of getting ST patches to put on a jacket. I want to create a Captain's flight jacket and would love to have the De Valtos insignia and some rank badges to put on it.

I do have an aunt that can do custom embroidery but the idea sounded so cool I had to share it  If you could find a way, they would make great giveaways for KS and Patreon rewards. |

Looks pretty awesome. The one thing is we can't maintain an inventory (for many reason). The patch studio would let us buy large quantities of patches and stock them, and then take orders (through PayPal?) and then ship them ourselves. |

I understand it could be hard to have to do a large order and then sell them as orders came in. I know you guys are busy enough, having to keep things stocked, mail it out and keep track of it is a pain. I'll keep an eye out for other sites. I've already found a few more that can do basic name tags one at a time. There's got to be some way it could be done. The captain ntsheep flight jacket just won't be cool if it doesn't have De Valtos on it.

By the way where can we get the Water Fuel mugs? Was looking for them back around Christmas and couldn't find them via the forum link  |

At this point, we really can't do any inventory of any gear. Merchandising sales is such a small part of our business, the hours and upfront investment are likely to never be recouped. I can only see buying and stocking inventory as a red herring on the road to distraction and going out of business. |

I understand fallen. I don't want you to do something you feel would be bad for the TB business. |

I understand fallen. I don't want you to do something you feel would be bad for the TB business. If you still do it, I'd love a pic of the patch! |

ntsheep - now I am thinking about how we could offer these as special Patreon or KickStarter rewards. The equation of trying to ship them one by one and keeping inventory is against us, but if we had X committed via Patreon or KickStarter, I could see them being a fun reward. Sew them into anything, like a backpack, jacket, your rocketship.

That's one of the things I was thinking also fallen, see my second post Perhaps you could even do a KisckStarter to raise the funds for the first batch of patches, that way you wouldn't have to come up with any money out of pocket first. Giving them away as Patreon rewards would be cool also. You could make them part of the new contest thing your having or at a certain pledge level you get one. I know your time and money is very precious to you so like I said, don't do anything you don't want to. I'm not trying to pressure you. I'll keep looking at things on my end. I can't really promise too much, but if I can find a cheap way of doing this, I would be willing to help out with the funding some. Some of the sites I found can do small orders of 10 patches for around $15-20 dollars plus S&H. So it looks like it might not be all that expensive for a small trial run to see if it would work. We might even get a few more members here on the forum interested. |
