Antique Tool Calendar

[Keith Outten]

Many of our new members may have missed the web page we setup with pictures of antique tools. If you are interested here is the link;

http://www.sawmillcreek.org/tools/

The original images were published in the Manufacturer and Builder newspaper published in the mid to late 1800's. I have enough pictures to put together a SawMill Creek calendar for 2004, with high resolution pictures of these beautiful antique tools and our logo. The web page above has pictures of woodworking and metalworking tools, I would only use pictures and descriptive text of woodworking tools for the SawMill Creek calendar.

I contacted a local company today and the price per calendar would be about 20 dollars (plus S&H) if anyone is interested. If we ordered in quantity the price would go down, I won't know how much until Monday. Even if there are just a few people interested we can still have these calendars made. All calendars would have to be prepaid before we order.

Let me know if you would be interested in one of these calendars but please don't respond unless you are serious. I will put together a sample picture this weekend and post it here for all to view. These would make a nice Christmas gift and this could be volume one of a collectors series in the years to come :)

keith, I'd like one too.

[Keith Outten]

Here is the picture I will use as a sample Monday when I visit Kinko's. I'm sure they will have their own calendar section but this is the look I hope to end up with.

[Glenn Clabo]

Outstanding Keith! Your usual class act.

[Jim Becker]

I would buy one...

[Jason Roehl]

Keith,

Just one question. Does that $20 include "a little something for yourself"? You guys put plenty of time and effort into this place, and if you're selling items like the calendar, you certainly deserve a little return on investment....

I have to ask my financial secretary (LOML) if I'm interested in this, but will let you know. :D

[Byron Trantham]

I want one too. :D

[Lloyd Brown]

How big will they be ? I like ones you can write on (CRS desease).

[Keith Outten]

Jason,

Nope, the price I got from Kinko's was $19.95 each, there would be a price break if we order a couple hundred. I will only add the shipping costs, the calendar is a non-profit deal.

Lloyd,

I'm not sure about the size, I should have all the final details Monday, I also prefer the large calendars for notes. I kept the tool picture clutter free so they could be framed, they are about a half meg each so the quality should be excellent.

[Spence DePauw]

Sign me up for one (each year...)

[Dan McLaughlin]

Keith At least one possibly two depending on size

[Jeff Ward]

I'll take one also.

[Bob Jensen]

I want one also, thanks

[Ted Owen]

Please sign me up for one also, Keith. Thanks.

Best, Ted

[Mark Katz]

Well, most message boards discourage "Me too" posts but this seems appropriate, so "Me too"

[Roger Fitzsimonds]

Keith them itty bitty numbers is too small to see with these old eyes, they got some bigger ?
I will need two calenders. Bobby

[Jay Sullivan]

Me too.

I'll take one also.

I stopped by Kinko's yesterday and looked at their calendar layouts. The largest folding calendar is basically two 8.5" by 11" sheets so the picture will go at the top and the calendar at the bottom.

Aaron has agreed to help me put together all of the pictures and text for each woodworking machine. I believe that Aaron said he had some additional ideas for the calendar as well so we'll have to wait and see how creative he has been :)

There is a 20% discount if we order 20 calendars or more.

Bobby :) The calendar portion is a full sheet so the numbers should be large enough if you don't leave your glasses on the table saw like I do :p The sample picture above was a snapshot of the SawMill Creek Forums Calendar, the look of the final product will be a little different.

[Brad Schafer]

i'll take one too, Keith.

Mark,

Yep, you caught me and I'm running late getting the photos to Kinko's. I hope to make a small first order on Friday.

Send me a check if you want a calendar, there is no profit in these folks, Kinko's charges $19.95 each plus shipping should be about $24.00 for each calendar.
