Re: [OSM-talk] Hi-vis vest with OpenStreetMap Logo Surveyor Text - Printing Underway

2008-05-07 Thread Graham Smith

Hi again Folk,

Many thanks to all those that have contacted me about purchasing the 
custom OSM printed/logo'ed Hi-Vis Vests.  I'm please to announce that 
the order has now been placed with the printer and hopefully I'll have 
the printed vests sometime in the next 5 - 7 working days.  When they 
arrive, I'll be in touch directly with all those who have responded to 
me, to finalise the orders and organise dispatch, etc.


In the meantime, for those who maybe missed the first email, I have 
ordered the following spares, which are still available if you're 
interested:


1 x Small Size
3 x Medium Size
3 x Large Size
3 x XL Size
1 x XXL Size

The final price of the vests will be £8.50 and this includes the logo 
printed on both the back of the vest (as per the below mock-ups), but 
also on the front lapel.  As previously indicated, postage should be 
circa £2 within the UK (Royal Mail), with overseas shipping prices 
dependent on destination.


If you have not yet been in touch and wish to reserve one of the above 
spares, please contact me directly at osm at sonicresolutions.com.  
Once these spares are gone, that's it for the time being (unless we can 
get together enough pre-orders for another run).


Kind regards,
Graham

I have also corrected a typographic error in the original mockup 
pictures, whereby I had the address of the OSM website as a .com rather 
than a .org domain (thanks to Andy for picking up on this).  The mockups 
and the graphic have been corrected accordingly.


Cheers,

Hi folks,

I'm in the process of getting a custom high-visibility safety vest 
printed for myself, for OSM surveying work, as I do most of my surveying 
on-foot and sometimes find myself near busy roads, etc.  It's also a 
great way to raise the profile of OSM, whilst offering a real health and 
safety advantage for both pedestrian and bike surveyors.  These 
high-visibility orange vests can be warn over the top of your normal 
clothing, so are suitable for all types of weather conditions.  If 
you're wondering what these vests are, see the following link (you've no 
doubt seen highway maintenance crews, or airport ground crews wearing 
these):


http://www.worksafedepot.co.uk/img/prod_img/hivis/vest.jpg

I'm wondering if anybody else might be interested in purchasing one of 
these with a custom OSM print on the back? I'm trying to gauge the level 
of interest before I think about submitting a bulk order for printing.  
The following are URLs to jpegs of a mock-up of the design I've come up 
with (showing the back of the vest), based on the OSM logo:


http://www.sonicresolutions.com/osm_vest/mockup.jpg
http://www.sonicresolutions.com/osm_vest/mockup2.jpg

Depending on numbers, the vests are likely to sell for around £9.00 each 
+ PP (PP will probably be a few pounds for the UK, maybe more to 
Europe/rest of world).  I will donate any profit made after covering my 
expenses, back to OSM.  The price is likely to come down if I can get 
sufficient numbers of interested purchasers to reach price-break points 
for printing.


If you are interested in purchasing one of these printed hi-vis vests, 
could you please e-mail me at osm at sonicresolutions.com and include 
Vest in the subject line.  In your e-mail, please state the size and 
quantity of vests you would be interested in purchasing, and your 
country if you're outside the UK (so I can get together accurate postage 
costs). Available sizes are:


Small 33-38
Medium 38-41
Large 41-44
X Large 44-47
XX Large 47-50
XXX Large 50-54
 Large 54-56

At this stage I'm just trying to gauge interest and your e-mail to me 
will of course *not* commit you to purchase.  Once I've got a list of 
interested parties, if the numbers are sufficient, I'll e-mail everyone 
individually with the final costings and payment will probably be via 
PayPal.  I won't call for payment until I've actually got the vests in 
front of me, ready to dispatch.


Any questions, please feel free to drop me an e-mail.

Kind regards,
Graham Smith

 Hi folks,

 I'm in the process of getting a custom high-visibility safety vest
 printed for myself, for OSM surveying work, as I do most of my  
 surveying
 on-foot and sometimes find myself near busy roads, etc.

 I had the same request out to the mailing list a couple of months  
 ago and
 got quite a big response from various around the world. I just  
 haven't had
 time to co-ordinate getting a batch printed up. Would be keen to  
 share the
 workload if you are interested in doing something on this. The

 Sorry Andy, I didn't realise you had already kicked something off in  
 this respect!

 I'll see what the response is like for the design I've put forward.   
 I might not have any choice but to share the workload depending on  
 how things go! :) :)  I take it you're based in the UK too?

 Cheers,
 Graham

Cheers Steve, I'll add you to the list.  Could you e-mail me off-list 
with the size/quantity you are after (and I'm assuming you're UK based too).

Thanks to all those who have already responded directly to me too.

Kind regards,
Graham
