Deadmon Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Ive considered making the Ordo logo or various 3d models that could be sent off to 3d printing companies for shit like Ordo themed desk displays (Ordo symbol on a pedestal) or a small Aryte bust statue / tons of other easy relatively small things that could be done.

BlackSergal Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 The temp-tats is one angle.. Stickers for cars is a spin off of this tech.. And can be had for only 5 bucks each..In the enclosed thumbnail you'll see the prototype stickers that serve to both be a Temp-tat, and (with the right materials) a window sticker. (It's backwards as you'd place is from inside your car, facing outwards.)This monday I'll be going back south to my folks house to finalize the links and types of hats/shirts we'd select to become available.

BlackSergal Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see them too. But they just arn't econmical for both parties. Too much time = too much cost too buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsume Xiao Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Burr, was the Beret/Patch thing just for that combination, or did it also pertain to plain standard patches?Also, is your facility limited to clothing or can you print on hard materials like glass?

BlackSergal Posted April 21, 2012 Author Share Posted April 21, 2012 This very much is a "Cottage Industry" coming out of my parents house where my mom runs her business. The various machines we use are "Home use machines." But that is a liberal use of the term as they are 5-figure machines the size of small refrigerators and have touch-screan CPUs as smart as PC tablets. This limits us to producting hats and clothing for the embroidery, but theres other clothing-related options as well such as heat-press. Though they don't last as long or look as good, and can be had at basicly the same cost as much more permant embroidery.To do a patch, your going to need a lot of time on the machine: (AKA Spend lots more thread and time on the machine = money.) Then you have to sew the patch to the berret, as the thin fabric on the berret would not surive the embroidery. Thats more time, more money for the hat.To put things in perspective: Arokh's biker vest of awesomeness cost him over $100.00 and thats including the cost of the leather jacket and shipping. Its in special Glow-in-the-Dark thread on a 14'x14" water-resistant patch and was all done in the same way you'd make a berret w/ patch.Granted due to the fact that Arokh was using this a part of saftey gear, he really got the red-carpet treatment. But that's still not that much more expensive you'd end up. So the bottom dollar line is; What would you spend your money on? Would you pay over a $100 bucks on a flimisy thin-fabric'd berret that you had to hand-wash only (thus only wear occasonally)? Or $20 bucks on a sturdy hat with embrodery directly on it that you could thrash and wear all the time b/c you can just toss it in the washer when it gets dirty?(One example of the coming items for sale, the Garrison cap)Now in terms of Hard Materials: Sadly no, we don' have the ablity to do any etching like Arokh's flask. He might be the better "go-to" there if your looking for that. That said, the latest piece of gear that was picked up was a special paper cutter that will do extreamly accurate cuts, allowing for professional window stickers. Like the ones up on my pervious posts, only w/o the hack-job I did cutting them out with scissors (as we were testing the material not the machine). I encourage everyone who's interested to goto this site and look a the various head-gear and throw in their ideas. Mission Imprintables has a wherehouse local thus the costs are much lower than having to order the item and have it shipped to us before sewing. So we'd perfer using them exclusively.

Tsume Xiao Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Burr, I was not asking about a patch for a beret. I was asking for just a plain patch. How would embroidering on a piece of stand-alone fabric be different than embroidering on the garrison cap you showed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSergal Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 It all comes down to size/time on the machine: (Your question was not the only one I was just answering, but to also drive a final nail in the berret coffin and explain just how hard it is to make them)Now then, Good question!How big and what type of fabric are you looking at getting? Currently (strickly for ease of choice)The sizes are 3" x 3", 9" x 9", and 14" x 14" . 3" x 3" is what you'd get on a typical hat and on a stright up normal piece of heavy cotton fabric your looking at about $9 bucks + Shipping for your patch.After that price, just add $5 bucks to each size up. For example: 9" x 9" What you'd find on the back of a typical tshirt will be $15 and 14" x 14" (Arokh's vest size) will be $20. (Also, I have your friend's Ordo tabbard done, it's on 14" x 14" and would be $45 bucks [but I paid for it] and is ready for shipping. Just send that info to the email below and we'll send it out his way.)These prices are estmates but should be fairly close for simple, easy to come by fabrics. Again, prices are subject to change based on costs of materials.For a definitive and exact cost, or on any questions what so ever, I encourge you to email the source herself at: [email protected] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odin047 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 How big do the fidel caps go up to? (I have a large head) Because I would definitely be interested in one of those if you are still selling Ordo gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
