View Full Version : BCUK badges
The BushcraftUK Badges are now finally here!!! :o):
they are available now at the BCUK Store (http://store.bushcraftuk.net/)
The Badges are intended to help members identify each other.
they are available with a green background or a limited number of white ones. They are 6cm and embroidered with a overlocked border which means that there will not be any frayed edges.

They actually look rather good. I'm sure we will see a few of these cropping up around the place as time goes by.
How much are they Stuart?
They are available from the BCUK shop here:
http://www.bushcraftuk.net/bcukstore/store.htm
...and those who subscribe to our full membership for £15/year will get one free saving the usual £5 cost ;-)
:-)

Arrived safely thanks, one will adorn the nearly finished ventile and the other on a swannie

These are really smart badges :biggthump and the handwriting on the envelope was far too neat :)
Roger
I'll start writing them left handed :wink:
As a full member when will i receive my badge?
Totally agree. Great badge, and will make meeta a lot easier.
And Tony's handwriting is FAR too neat!!!
Just need to decide what to sew the badge on, (jacket/t-shirt/short/hat/daysack...)

Not stupid at all ... in fact, I think others are probably thinking it too!
Nice one ... question though, why do they say . com?
Yeah, I've had the .com for ages, it should have transfered over but the old hosting company is being a bit slow changing the tags.
Soon though :biggthump

Hi Wayne, did you get my email asking for an address to send it to? I've not recieved a reply....maybe a quick PM would be easier. I'm putting badges in the post later today so as soon as I get the addy it will be on it's way to you

Got my badge this morning, they look great. My wife did ask if BCUK was 'a bit like cubs' with giving out badges and all. What would she know? Just have to decide where to sew it now.
Thanks anyway and great idea to get badges. Now any chance of polo shirts or similar? I'm serious by the way.

Just had a look how long the badges took to sort out but I think people would be up for other stuff. Is it a possibility or were the badges too much hassel? Sorry if this a can of worms Tone.
Bill
Hi Bill, yeah, we're up for other stuff as well. I was supposed to have t-shirts done over a month ago but yesterday I found out the company doing them has gone under :?: But, they're on the cards and we've a few other things in the pipeline.
We've got over the biggest hurdle and that's getting the first items produced. It's not as easy as I thought it would be though, we spent weeks being sent samples of designs and colours etc talking back and forth with the badge company.....
Anyway, have a good one and there will be more stuff soon.
Cheers
T
Yup, polo's would be of interest - especially in forest green or drab olive or summat similar.
Now you have the design, it is quite straight forward to get your design stitched on to a shirt but there is usually a one off setup charge (£50 or there abouts). There are a miriad of companies doing it, though one of the cheaper ones I've used was Arco - the industrial supplies people.

The T-shirts look good by the way. Fully embroidered logo on the front and embroidery on the back and sleaves.... and available in black green and white ;-)
Ed
Oh yes, the T shirts are blooming fantastic... Although when I showed it to my Mum last night, her immediate question was "is this for me?" So I may need another :D
BTW -
are the t-shirts going to be cotton or a natural metrial?
Er - cotton? Not natural?
sorry i didnt mean cotton Or a natural.. i ment cotton or another nice natural material.. as opposed to a man made fiber!
Yeah, t-shirts are brilliant!
Might have to buy a few more so I have a change of clothing on site...(why do I just KNOW that someone like Lithril is gonna have something to say about that!)

Should I have a badge by now or are they still being processed. I appreciate it will take some time to send them all out. Especially with Tony's calligraphy on the envelope.

I've still not got one but my post sucks at times so if you have sent it it will probably turn up. Of course if you have not sent it then it probably won't.
I'll PM my address just in case.

Hi Guys,
can someone explain to me about the BCUK badges? Are only paying members getting them or is that a badge given to people who have been in the UK attending a BCUK meeting? Who are these special people and what kind of heroic Bushcraft act was performed to deserve the badge. :o):
cheers

:chill:Full members receive a badge as part of their membership. You can also purchase badges from the bcUK shop (http://store.bushcraftuk.net/)!! :-D
And they're darn good! Just like the t-shirts!
Which reminds me, need about 2 or 3 more of each...
Hmm, BCUK diaries Tony?

You need to buy them from the BCUK shop and you can also get a lovely T-shirt and few other small items. The only brave thing you have to do is explain why you need badges to your misses. I am in the scouts so have an excuse. :wink:

Off Thread again but what about a Calender with some nice pics from the Gallery (or maybe a competition, some helpful tips of things to do each month and a list of in season foods. O and off course the various important dates of the Bushmoots of the year etc.
It might be cheaper then a Diary.
Just a thought.

Wow!!!! I'm even dreaming about these patches. I dreamed of a "King Ralph" situation. The entire royal family got smoked, and needed a new ruler, and they picked me. And when they were fitting me for my uniforms, I demanded the sew Hood's Woods and BCUK patches on them. The HW patches were on the left breast pockets, and the BCUK patches were sewn on the right sleeve exactly where british paratroop/SAS/SBS wings were placed!!!
And my royal secretary almost went into cardiac arrest when I invited all BCUK members to windsor castle for a rendesvous.
Hail to the king!!!! :o):
