    I searched to HAMB but I must not be using the right verbage.

    You know the sew on patches for jackets etc.

    Who still makes those? Any idea on the format they want for the artwork?





    While I am at it, what about water slide type decals?

    Thanks

    We used to get them sewn up in the PI while on detachment in the Navy. Not sure where to get them done stateside. You should have seen the one for the detachment we named "Mutant ********ers from Hell"!

    Roothawg try sending a PM to Pontiacres Ranch on here. He does embroidery and digitizing for a living and does real good stuff, and could probably hook you up. As for waterslide decals cant help you there.

    Oh and for artwork most places can work from anything really but if you have the logo done vectorized it sure helps (.ai .eps .cdr)

  11. They can do it with a computerized sewing machine, and a CAD-type program. I have a friend who has a machine. Check T-shirt companies, you should be able to find someone locally.
     
  12. I think Muttley does water slide decals.

    Brandon thanks for the plug but it's been 2 years since I've advertised in R&C. I had the Lady Luck and some other patches made up in Toronto. B&S Emblem. Great people and the exchange rate at the time made it a great deal.

    I still have a ton of inventory here to sell off. Patches, posters decals, pins.

    For decals (waterslide or self adhesive, contact Jerry Wagner at Decals USA in Mitchell NE (decalsusa@yahoo.com). Fantastic guy to do business with.
