As mentioned above, needs an Orlandi one, for the ladies' market!

Oh, and Bruno is 'número dos'...

Great work. Can you stick up a picture of the actual bades when you've made them?

How did the first batch go?

Just finished. There was only 15 in the starter pack so I have ordered 2 refill packs with 30 in each. They look really good for what they are. By that I mean, after the initial twenty odd quid for the machine maker, they work out around 40p each to make. So, yes, I think they look OK. Once I get the refills I shall do some more designs (a little time consuming cutting around each one) and put them on this thread.

The Poyet one is quality. That would make a great avatar

Seems to me that official club badges are one of the blind spots of the merchandising operation and always have been. Produce an eye-catching limited edition play-off edition for three quid for one week only and you'd have punters falling over themselves to buy one. Make 'em only available from the club shop and you'd have the perfect loss-leader. Its a missed trick IMHO.

How much do quality badge machines cost nowadays?

Just had a thought. If there was a badge for each member of the team, you could put them in formation to create a line-up for a match...

Awaiting your call from Barber and Co :thumbsup:

2nd batch of 4

I have decided that I won't be selling these badges as they are both very time consuming and difficult to get refill packs (only online and taking a week to be delivered) as well as a very small profit margin and distribution difficulties.
Nevertheless I shall put any on here in case anyone wants to do their own thing with them ...
