Leatherwork embossing plates

[spandit]

Le Prevo offer a service where for £60 (£45 + £5p&p + VAT) you can get a 4"x5" plate etched for embossing your own leatherwork. This works out at £3 a square inch.

I suggest that if we group together we could get this plate ordered with multiple designs on it. Of course, it would have to be cut up & posted but for under a fiver you could have a custom stamp made

So, for 20 sq.in. we need 20 buyers. Of course, if you want multiple inches that's no problem

Copy & paste & add your name. Once we're up to 20 names we'll start sorting things out.

Filling up nicely! I'd better think of a design I want made. For those who have signed up, please make sure you have a design drawn that you can email to me in a sufficiently high resolution. Once they're all gathered in, I'll make a composite & send it off to them (unless there is a different company someone can recommend)?

I managed to get on one of these on BB and very pleased with the result. Very crisp lines and a good deep impression if you want to take a clamp to it. (I just stood on this one.) Now epoxied to a block of hardwood. Replaces the one I got from a guy on here a while ago made from a resin type substance...? This is the new one, about 20mm square,

and the older one, about 25mm

If I didn't have one already I'd jump on this!

cheers,

Alan

[mountainm]

I'll take 2 if we need to make up numbers.

SNIP: (unless there is a different company someone can recommend)?

Have you checked out Metallic Elephant? They make foils for the printing presses. I think they might be even more affordable. I'll email them to get a price list

http://www.metallicelephant.co.uk/index.htm

I was going to mention them before but I didn't want to step on no toes.

We're getting there! Forgot to say, if you want a longer design you can order more squares. I'll contact Le Prevo in due course to see what other sizes are available as we've only done the minimum order, assuming more people are interested.

Has anyone got any links or pointers to the kinda' stuff LePrevo can do in terms of intricacy etc of these stamps? I have an idea for one or two, but I don't want to go too complex.

OK, we're up to 3x9". Just had a PM saying prices elsewhere are much cheaper so it might be a lot less than I previously quoted

Once we close the list I'll PM people my email address. Ideally, I'd like the images in .png (2 bit) although .gif, .svg would also work. JPEGs are not the best format as you lose definition with the compression

Guys, if you need more than 1 square inch, can you put your name multiple times?

[spandit]

OK, minor change of plan

After some very helpful research by McCairney, we're going with a different supplier who is much cheaper.

The squares will be 25x25mm (so you lose .4mm each way :D) and if we order 32 of them, which looks likely (1/4" thick) it's about £1.20 a square, albeit before P&P

Bear in mind that I'll have to buy a load of envelopes & stamps so I'd reckon about £3 per square. I won't make anything on the purchase but I might have to pay to get them cut with a band saw

[Bucephalas]

Can you add another for me then pls, that's 2 in total

[Tony]

do the images need to be inverted or as they are...that make sense?

[spandit]

do the images need to be inverted or as they are...that make sense?

It does make sense... According to the site (http://www.metallicelephant.co.uk/userimages/guidetopricing.pdf) artwork should be forward facing, ie you don't need to invert it.

If everyone could look at that PDF that would help. I'm concerned about borders but think I'll wait until the artwork comes in from every body

If you're bandsawing it do you need clearance between each design?

[spandit]

Yes, we'll need a bit. I reckon for a 25mm square if the logo is 20mm across (exactly the size of a 1p coin!) then that should be sufficient. That gives 5mm between each design (2.5mm each side)

[mountainm]

Whilst working on my logo I realised it was looking a bit familiar - is this too similar to a clothing brand logo? Can't think of which one...

Might be an idea to get a metal version of my one. If you want a hand sorting the artworks let me know.

[TurboGirl]

Just a little *bump* and check I've got the right idea for artwork....

* 20mm actual stamp design logo, allowing for 2.5mm each side to be seperated from the main 'sheet'.
* 2 bit design (i.e. black and white), can be larger than actual stamp for you to reduce to size.
* Preferably .png file format to be emailed to Spandit

Are you still probably closing at 64 for this run?
And huuuuge thanks! :)

Spot on! Let's call this closed now. Had an email from the company making them & they charge 60p a block to cut - that seems easiest to me. If people can refrain from PMing me for now & I'll post a disposable email address on here for you to contact

[mountainm]

Awesome stuff, thanks for organising this. :thumbup::thumbup:

[jackcbr]

Well I just got hold of 40 ish little boxes that might do for postage and save on envelopes. If someone creates an excel doc with fields for name, street & number, town, district, county, postcode I'll print off some address labels

[spandit]

That's great, Jack. I can mail merge the labels here (already got a spreadsheet set up for this)

The email I set up didn't work so I'll try again

[oakhill_wanderer]

Is there any chance you could specifiy a deadline on getting the artwork to you. Myself and Silverhill are working on our artwork together but we've both got ongoing commitments/holidays coming up in the [very] near future.

[spandit]

Midday today :)

OK, I'll set the deadline for 11th of June.

Can people please e-mail me on: spandit@leatherstamp.dudmail.c om

For those of you worried about e-mail privacy, this is a temporary address that will forward to my real account (from which I'll reply to you) and will be deactivated by the end of June

[spandit]

Note: don't send attachments to the above address, they don't get through. Wait until I mail you back and then send them through...

[Angst]

ok ok...i'm getting very confused, easily done at my age. am i correct in thinking that we have had email probs?....that might explain no reply to my annoying email....i presumed i was being ignored until the last necessary moment lololololol!

so....its spandit@leatherstamp.dudmail.c om (spandit@leatherstamp.dudmail. com)...but no attachments.....

speak soon,

a

[spandit]

Sorry, you weren't being ignored - I've emailed you back now & you can send attachments to the address I replied on. Apologies for the cloak-and-dagger stuff but I've had huge problems in the past with spam after posting my actual address on forums

[spandit]

OK, I have the e-mail addresses of just under half of the people on the list, and fewer logos. If those who haven't contacted me yet could do so (e-mail above and I'll respond back) I'd be very grateful

[Miniwhisk]

Okay, I am ready for my own stamp now. ;) What is the timeline for the image as I don't yet have one?

Perhaps you can add my name to the next batch as I'm a bit under-prepared with supplying an image. Will PM..

[spandit]

This GB is now closed to newcomers, but I've had a few people PM me to say they're interested so it might run again in the future, if this one isn't a complete disaster. In the meantime, if anyone wishes to drop out, there is a growing reserve list

[grey- array]

Dear sincere anyone, I would love to get myself a stamp, yet the places sadly have been filled, is there perhaps anyone dropping out, please let me know if you might want to drop out, and would want to able me to fill your spot
Yours sincerely Ruud

[Thijzzz]

I'd like a spot on the reserve list.
Artwork is ready (vector EPS). Size 25 x 25 mm.
Possibly a second one of 10 x 10 mm

[mountainm]

How we doin' - everyone finished designing?

[TurboGirl]

This waiting malarky is hard, isn't it... but it's going to be soooo worth it! Spandit, hows your compiling going? Have any of us said recently how much we appreciate all this work you've taken on and how much we're gonna enjoy using these? Huuuuge respect to you and any helpers on the format front!
:notworthy

I would like to drop out if possible? Given my lack of time to do a logo at the moment.

[spandit]

Grey array - you were first so if you'd like Richard's place then it's yours.

Artwork going OK, think about half have come in. Got a very busy week at work coming up so not going to look at it much before then but keep the designs coming in!

[grey- array]

Hey guys might there be anyone going to the Moot who would like to receive my stamp for me, It would save a fair amount of pp costs, as It would turn out rather more expensive to ship them overseas. perhaps Tony if you would not find this troublesome?
Yours sincerely and already superb thanks, Ruud

[DaveBromley]

Gutted i missed out on this one!

Never mind maybe next time

Dave

[spandit]

I'll add you to the reserve list. I haven't received contact from everyone on the original list yet. I'll give it a few more days then start replacing people :D

[Sherwood]

This waiting is hard work!:surrender:
Hows the list coming along and have we a target date set yet? :rolleyes:

Big Thanks for a great group buy:You_Rock_

[spandit]

Still waiting for a few designs. Will wait until next week before I start naming and shaming! :D

[Biker]

I'll add you to the reserve list. I haven't received contact from everyone on the original list yet. I'll give it a few more days then start replacing people :D


Would you add me to that secondary list as well please. I missed seeing this thread for what it was when it first appeared, thought it was something else entirely.

[DaveBromley]

cool beans i'll get my artwork sorted just in case then

How much did it work out to per square inch again?

Dave

[Stew]

Still waiting for a few designs. Will wait until next week before I start naming and shaming! :D

i think you've been more than generous. ;)

If anyone is really struggling to get a design sorted then why not post up here guys and one of us might be able to help? :)

[mountainm]

i think you've been more than generous. ;)

I'd be up for helping with that - it's supposed to have been a fathers day present for my dad... so the sooner the better really.

[DaveBromley]

not sure i'll be making the list but if anyone can have a look at what i've managed to knock together it would be appreciated.

No laughing lol

I normally hit stuff with a hammer until it looks right cant get the hang of all this fiddly stuff

Doesn't have to be the same just something like that but better lol (if you get chance)

Dave

[Stew]

That looks fine already Dave. :)

[spandit]

That'll work.

[Bucephalas]

Sorry guys, i missed the dealine thread. If not too late i'll get my designs in shortly.

[DaveBromley]

How much would it be for my design on a 2x2 inch stamp?

Dave

[spandit]

How much would it be for my design on a 2x2 inch stamp?

Dave

4 times the price of one... Roughly £20, I think but need to get the designs in so I can get it quoted

[DaveBromley]

where are you having this done? I saw recently that Le Prevo do something like this for £2.25 per square inch, might be worth a look?

Dave

[spandit]

Dave, have you tried reading post #1 in this thread?

Remember, on top of the actual etch costs, there are cutting and delivery charges

[dwardo]

When would you like some cash for this?

[DaveBromley]

sorry buddy making a nuisance of myself lol reread post 1, my apologies

I would be up for a 1"x1" copy of this if there is room?

10972

Let me know if there's room and i'll get the money over to you via paypal

Thanks mate

Dave

[plasticfantastic]

Apologies, i totally forgot about this.

Please give my spaces to someone a little more organised than myself!

[spandit]

OK, will see who's next in line. Won't know about cash yet until I've got all the designs in

[Sherwood]

I,m dropping out too, so 4 places up for the next in line....

[mountainm]

So have we got enough to keep going?

[Angst]

hi....ok i give up...no idea whats going on and i'm clueless at this stuff....could someone please help me?

heres my feeble attempt....it needs to be even/symmetricalish/neatened up and squarer....maybe the corners minutely rounded off....probably a 5 minute job to someone who isnt a total retard like me....i've got adobe cs4 but have only ever used it for photography and the vastness of the program is making such a simple thing impossible to fathom in my little head....its like trying to swat an amoeba using something that weighs as much as a planet....

I used CS4 too, found it shockingly hard to do the simple stuff. Forwarded it to a friend in the business and he did it in about 4 miniutes :(

Seem to have a few pulling out now is this still viable? I hope so.

Excuse me for asking this, but what am I actually suposed to see in that design? Maybe I'm looking for things in it that just aren't there. Cool design though, but looking at it cold I don't know what it's supposed to represent. Is that a P in the lower left corner and a low case "a" beside it?

Sorry to rain on your parade, don't mean to. Honest. :o

looks like you missed 3 mate :)

Hopefully got em all now.

[TurboGirl]

I downloaded Inkscape for my stamp artworks, it's a good, free and intuitive vector graphic package- ma Eldest does cut vinyls for vehicle graphics, he recommended this and I had them both done from a doodled artwork scan within about 3hr, including the downloading and picking up the basics :)

[mountainm]

Is it time to name and shame the missing artwork contributers yet?

[spandit]

So have we got enough to keep going?

Not sure. With davebromley, gray-array, thijzz, miniwhisk, Biker and possibly Robbi in, I think we're still short but I'll have to go through the whole thread again and check.
Still waiting for artwork from:

bucephalus (who lost my address)
Chiseler
leonidas
luckylee
roger-uk

Plus the guys who are now on the main list:
DaveBromley
Thijzz
MiniWhisk
Biker

jackcbr & SimonH - if you can e-mail me the designs you had at the weekend I'd be grateful.

[Angst]

guys....i cant thank you enough.....mountain i owe you a beer or ten!! THANKYOU!!!!

yup dwardo its a nightmare innit.....cs4 is over-kill at times. i even tried using my ancient jasc p.s.pro as its much simpler but couldnt even figure that out either.

the design is of my three initials....

just one thing mountain....and please feel free to tell me to eff-off....would it be better if it was slightly less 'long' and a bit squarer to fit on the square stamp a bit better?....please dont waste any more of your time tho if its a pain.....i really appreciate what youve done.

i dunno what you mean by a radius in this context (curved corners?) but if one/three are missing i'm sorta kool with that dont panic....i dont know if this sounds bizarre to you perfectionists but me personally....i dont mind minor imperfections in handmade things whether it be leatherwork or knifemaking or whatever...if a handmade item is perfect then it has nothing but my total respect but at the same time i like to see/feel the makers 'marks'.....to me theres a difference between a 'mistake....bad workmanship' and having something so perfect it looks plastic, lifeless or done by a machine.

feel free to lynch me at next years moot lol.

seriously though.....thanks again....me well happy.

and i'll download that software thanks turbogirl.....need to teach meself so i can up with something nicer like mountains logo next time all by meself and not be a burden to y'all.

If you can find a picture you like on-line you can just link to it/send it to me - I saw in that other thread you wanted a trout or something

[Robbi]

oh, interesting....i'll have a looksee.

[Angst]

and.....if there are more spaces i'll have a couple more stamps.....

regards

a

[spandit]

Just to let you know, for those of you who have ordered 1 stamp, the cost will be about £5 posted, I think, possibly slightly less. It's gone up slightly due to the cutting costs but I won't know until I can get all the designs in and can send a file to the manufacturer (I also might have overestimated the postage). For those who have ordered 2, it won't be twice as much etc.

Angst, I think there are 2 spaces left (leaving one for Robbi) - shall I put you down for them?

[mountainm]

and.....if there are more spaces i'll have a couple more stamps.....

regards

I thought with the long logo you were planning on spanning 3 spaces?

[Angst]

yo...yup i'll have it please.....3 in total

i'll have one the one that kerne originally did for me and two of my new one that mountains done....so 3 separate ones....

i think that would be too big mountain....if you can make squarer would be great....

how many beers i owe you now?

a

and dont forget i'm paying for steve581's as well....

[Biker]

Just sent my design to Spandit at the desired email address. Thanks for the inclusion pal.

And now the waiting game begins.... :aargh4:

I can make it a bit sqaurer but to work I think you need it to span at least 2 squares - otherwise it'll be tiny.

As for the beers - I'm more a single malt kinda guy! :lmao:

[Robbi]

I have a royalty free fish logo:
11180
If you want it Robbi?

yes please !

( whats royalty free ? )

[Angst]

yo....but that means itll be almost 2inches long yep?.....that'll be a bit too big to be honest.....some of the things i make are not say as big as a bushcraft knife sheath and it would look out of place....

[Angst]

means you can use it without having to pay anyone....otherwise you get men in shades turn up on your door with tazers and they take you off to a bleak grey government cell deep underground and put a cage with a starved rat in it over your face.....


yes please !

( whats royalty free ? )

[Robbi]

Jeez ! how do i know if my design ( found on the web ) is royalty free ?

[Biker]

Jeez ! how do i know if my design ( found on the web ) is royalty free ?

If the men in shades don't turn up, it's free. Simples!

[Angst]

because mountains an ex-government agent....you have to trust him....like me when he says i should span over two squares....

its that or the caged rat my friend.....he's got contacts.....only has to make a phonecall if you doubt him....in fact you should pm me from now on.....big brother is watching us....


Jeez ! how do i know if my design ( found on the web ) is royalty free ?

[mountainm]

I thought the squares are 25mm

[widu13]

I have a royalty free fish logo:

FYI, that's very similar to mine. Not quite the same but it would look so on a small stamp.

[Angst]

yo.....isnt 25mm about an inch?....i'm trusting you and spandit anyway mountain....i emailed him earlier explaining....thanks again for all your help m8....some big old single malts are indeed owed....you at wilderness gathering?

robbi.....careful of widu.....i think hes an agent....lol!

I thought the squares are 25mm

[spandit]

widu isn't tall enough to be an agent... ;)

Aye it is an inch more or less. I blame sleep deprivation.Won't be at the gathering mores the pity. So do you need it resized to fit in an inch?

I think you tried sending attachments to the temporary address and then lost my real address - just checked again and haven't had anything further from you so yes, please send them again

[luckylee]

I sent you mine bud.

[spandit]

I sent you mine bud.

So you did, again, didn't update the spreadsheet (problem is, I get the e-mails on my 'phone but the spreadsheet is on the laptop which isn't by my side constantly). Updated now, thanks!

[HillBill]

No worries mate. :)


I do apologise, Bill, I was just copying from my spreadsheet - obviously didn't update it properly...

[spandit]

Due to a bit of confusion with someone, there's now one more square available...

[Simon H]

OK, it's yours... :)

There might be another square going too as someone is thinking of pulling out...

[stuey]

I would be interested in a square please depending on the artwork deadline?

Have you got any artwork ready? I'll need it in PNG format, at least 400x400, black and white - pretty sure he's pulling out but have let him think about it for a bit

[stuey]

Working on artwork as we speak.
Understand about deciding time :)

Can you clarify about artwork please?
Presumably greyscale is not acceptable?
Do you mean 400x400 pixels?

Thanks,

Stuart

I think he does mean 400x400 pixels

i'm guessing a higher resolution will be fine as it can be shrunk but if you do it at a low resolution and it needs resizing it will become pixelated

And I'm sure it said Black and white in the OP (or at least since lol)

Dave

[TurboGirl]

I'd checked I'd got the right idea and designed to that on inkscape as its a vector graphic freeware program rather than a bmp/ jpeg rastor graphics program which can pixelate.... reposting incase it helps :)

* 20mm actual stamp design logo, allowing for 2.5mm each side to be seperated from the main 'sheet'.
* 2 bit design (i.e. black and white), can be larger than actual stamp for you to reduce to size.
* Preferably .png file format to be emailed to Spandit
EDIT...Not that it helps on the size, Dave, lynch the interfering wench eh?! There was a pdf ref sizing ((http://www.metallicelephant.co.uk/us...etopricing.pdf) from the manufacturers too :)

[spandit]

Yes, at least 400x400 pixels. If you send it in colour/greyscale I'll just have to convert it to black & white which risks it looking cr*p

[Robbi]

hiya spandit, when do you need the dosh mate ?

any idea when this is all going to happen as i recieved my stamp from the states and it's seriously carp !!

[Angst]

hiya i'm back....all ok i think mountain....i'm all set....i'll be happy whatever....you guys are having a nightmare so me not gonna moan whatever happens....its fun either way....

Hey angst, not had chance to do those edits yet sorry. Work is a nightmare at the mo.

how we doin otherwise?

[grey- array]

Spandit, I am looking anxiously to this thread, and is my fear that the Moot is an unachievable goal a accurate one?
If so, you can give my spot to one of the willing here
Though thanks so very much for the effort
Yours sincerely Ruud

[mountainm]

...stay on target...

[widu13]

Don't all keep pulling out for goodness sake. Spandit has invested a LOT of time and effort and we really are talking pennies. If you have a stamp made now and don't use it immediately, you've still got if for another time. :rolleyes:

Now you know why organising GBs is considered to be grief...because it is!

[spandit]

Guys, sorry for being slow. I still haven't had all the images in. I've messaged the people concerned to no avail. Been very busy at work too.
grey_array - looks like we will miss the Moot but for a small package the postage to Europe shouldn't be too dear

[Stew]

grey_array - looks like we will miss the Moot but for a small package the postage to Europe shouldn't be too dear

I was just coming on to say just that. :)
Post won't be a lot for it.

[Stew]

How many spaces do you need to fill? I think it's been long enough now to offer it out as a first come first served to any one else to get it moving. i can mention it on British Blades if you want?

[Robbi]

i would take another one if there's space.

[Bodge]

Maybe put a list up on the thread of who needs to get a design done. Maybe someone can help for anybody struggling.
Keep up the good work Spandit.

[Dougster]

I will certainly take another space should it become available.

[stuey]

Have you got any artwork ready? I'll need it in PNG format, at least 400x400, black and white - pretty sure he's pulling out but have let him think about it for a bit


Any news on this chaps decision Spandit ?
Art work is in progress here awaiting your go-ahead on space availability.
Thanks for herding all of us cats toward a common goal! :)

Spandit - I'd be interested in another two slots if there is space please.

[fishfish]

can i be put on a list for one of these or bettr still 2 .

[mountainm]

Sooooo, sounds like we may be good to go?

[Dougster]

I'm pretty keen to crack on.

[Stew]

Me too.

I would take another block just to help it along. :)

[stuey]

Easy boys! :D
I'm waiting to hear if the chap who was thinking of pulling out has made his decision yet so I can take his space.
It was the last space so form an orderly queue! :D ;) Especially you Dougster!! :D

[Tony]

How's this going?

[spandit]

Still waiting for designs & been really busy at work so little time to actually work on this

[stuey]

Any news from the chap that thought he might pull out but wasn't sure?
Cheers,
Stu :)

[Robbi]

i think you can safely say he's no longer interested mate, lots of us still are though and looking forward to the stamps :)

[mountainm]

think it should be first come first served on the remaining spaces now - first past the post with designs. Spandits call, but I think it's the only way we'll get this done and dusted.

[luckylee]

I let a space go just make things a little more easy.
but his kind of thing takes a lot to do.
and I'm great full that you are doing it bud.
take care.
and just let me no when you are ready.

[Robbi]

sounds a good idea mate, lets see what Spandit says.

[Dougster]

Should there be enough interest, I may run a second. I have to get a few done soon anyway.

Richard

[TurboGirl]

Interest from me for sure... though I need to get a better idea of how to design them by actually using these first ;)

[Bluefrog]

i would like one :D

[spandit]

Sorry for the delay, guys. There's basically one person who has screwed this up (OK two, including me!). I've sent him an ultimatum but if those who want in on this can just send me the pictures I'll allocate them on a first-come-first-served basis as I appreciate you've all been very patient!

[DaveBromley]

Dude dont beat yourself up lol, you're doing us the favour not the other way around!!

Dave

[TurboGirl]

Sorry for the delay, guys. ....I appreciate you've all been very patient! You're facilitating something brilliant for us, we're just extremely grateful for the time and trouble you're putting yourself to on our behalf.... the gals as well as the guys ;)

[Angst]

guys credit to you for sticking with this

[widu13]

You're facilitating something brilliant for us, we're just extremely grateful for the time and trouble you're putting yourself to on our behalf.... the gals as well as the guys ;)

It's refreshing to see a feminist TB. The Oxford Dictionary states the term "guys" is non gender specific:


Definition of guy
noun

informal a man:he’s a nice guy
(guys) people of either sex:you guys want some coffee?

[TurboGirl]

It's refreshing to see a feminist TB....Bless you, but I'm a model of submission and obedience... 'The Surrendered Wife' is my bible ;) so I bow to your correction... I was only joking though!

[mountainm]

Any progress? Anything I can do to help?

[mountainm]

Bump? Anyone need help getting a design done?

[Robbi]

I'm all ready to rock man !! lets go !! :)

[spandit]

Can everyone who is waiting for a reserve place email me their designs as the bloke I'm waiting for hasn't got back to me & you've all waited long enough...

[Robbi]

i believe you have my 2 designs already Spandit, if you have'nt got them, give me a shout and i'll send them again, i'd hate to be the one that holds things up for you !!

many thanks for your efforts mate

I think we're up to 51 but there are 2 people on the list who still haven't sent in the designs so keep them coming in!

[spandit]

Actually, there are at least 4 people who have expressed an interest and haven't sent me any designs. One of them is crosslandkelly who has only just posted, but the others have been on the list for a while

Any chance of seeing who is on the current list (just in case I've been included as a sleeper there) I know you received my design so I hope I'm included still. Thanks buddy.

[crosslandkelly]

Hi spandit, design sent . Cheers.

[DaveBromley]

It might be best to name and shame them into action, I'm getting excited about this now. Once the order is in how long will it be roughly before we have our stamps in hand do you think Spandit?

Thanks for all your hard work matey

Dave

[DaveBromley]

When do we need to pay you for this buddy?

Dave

[mountainm]

Yo Spandit. Can I help in anyway? Don't want to see this fizzle out at the final hurdle. How many slots are left?

[spandit]

About 12, I think. Will fire up the laptop tomorrow & check.

Once I get the master image designed & quote received I'll let people know by email how much they owe. I haven't spent any money on it yet, don't worry!

[mountainm]

I think some of us may be prepared to double up to fill the slots if needed...

[luckylee]

hope all is well mate, but is this still going on bud?

[mountainm]

With your permission Spandit - Can I suggest we restart the list? - all still interested who already have a valid design:

1. mountainm x2

That's 49 images. Anyone who requested a square but hasn't sent me an image hasn't been included. I could go ahead with this but the unit cost will be slightly higher due to the smaller amount ordered

[Stew]

What number is the optimum number? / How many more spaces are there to fill?
