Hi
Just as a matter of interest, I make these for the V strom crowd, I have made loads see the V strom forum if you want to read rave reviews. I also do ones for Boxer engines for the BMW crowd. The second photo is a basic SV design, I will make a few if there is interest. I do this all on a CNC router out of laminated plastic and they are shaped to resemble a motorbike number plate. 32mm square, you can have anything you want on the reverse if I can fit it on.

If anyone is interested let me know and tell me what you want on the back. I charge £4.80 including post/packing for a 100% CNC machined key-tag that is certainly the only one like it in the world. Made in Harrogate England. up to 14 days delivery as I make hundreds of them.

ADMIN please let me know how to go about selling, I don't wish to break any rules. If there is a fee, just let me know please and I will pay it.

Many thanks

Al

Yes, well spotted. A GS owner couldn't decide what that plate would look like as a keyring with a key so I took the photo with my suzy key for scale. :takeabow:

Just let me know, I can even do line drawings of your art work. Bigger tags that I make at 30x50 are popular also.

Thanks for the heads up Monkey, I have contacted Frizzwheel and await his response.

I had no way of knowing who to PM. That's why I say in the post. "ADMIN, please tell me how to go about selling as i have no wish to break the rules"

Until Its approved I won't take an order which shows respect I think. I like to do things properly and by the book.

Once its approved and/or I have paid the fee (if there is one) then I will make 20 of a final design which will be superb. Advise my paypal address and ask folks what they want on the back.

Cheers

Al.

1. Let admin know
2. Let the tax man know ....

"Hundreds" at £4 + a pop is a nice little earner rodney

1Thanks, I have asked admin as per my very first post

2 its actually not much of an earner at all and I'm fully aware of my tax liabilities. Material costs, machine running costs and tooling costs are barely covered. Don't assume if something sells for a particular price then it has earned the seller that amount of money. If only it did:D my profits on these are tiny indeed. I do it more for the fun of it. The yellow ones need a new carbide tool every 20 of them at 15 quid each for example as the material is very hard. Nice earner?? that's nearly 4 of them totally wiped out from 20 before I take anything else into account like blanks at over a quid each.

Thanks for your advice

Al.

Tbh, it's better to ask permission first before posting the thread, this forum is fairly strict on selling and as a result it keeps us fairly spam free.

It's been noted in mods area so I'm sure admin will respond as soon as he can.

I've flagged this up to John.

This is waiting on a response from John at present. Remember real life gets in the way sometimes. I'm sure he'll respond shortly.
