The Forestry Forum

hi guys i was just curiouse how you get the forestry forum hats and how much do they cost becuase i'd like to get one.

They are currently unavailable. I use to provide them after a member reached a pretty high post count which I will not devulge. ;D  But because of the costs I had to stop. I hope to start again at some point but I cant say when. The hats I used to get are no longer available in the style we had. When we get new ones they will have the new forum logo like I have on the truck, with the sun behind the tree.

Because of the addition of the new sponsors there is a good chance the hats will show up again in the not to distant future. :)

looking forword to that day and i have no problem paying for it becuase this forum has become my second home since i found it you have done a great job with it Jeff B my hats off to you so to speak.

hey Jeff i see your looks have'nt changed since you where a kid huh ;D

thats little Kevin

I'll have to commission the THUMPER to show my appreciation for that comment.  :D

   Hey Jeff if the sponsors don't cough up for hats I say we establish a hat fund. They are just too good to go by the board (so to speak..) I would kick in fo sho. I love my hat.  lw

count me in.

The sponsors treat us very well. Its me that has to cough up. ;)

Why just you, Jeff.  You could start a fund for new hats.  I'd be quite willing to donate to that kind of fund.

What I can do it just order them and if someone wants one they can buy one?  I actually called the hat place today and set up an appointment to go look at thier stuff one evening this week.

Bout time. The leaves all fell off mine ::) ;D ;D ;D

They must have talked to your hair eh?

I want one of those propeller thingy on mine 8).

  HEY, I got hair. :o  It's just that I'm growing through it ::) ::)

I ordered hats today. They will send me one first of next week and if I O.K. it then they will run some off.  The cheapest yet best Hat I could find that is still up to my minimum standard is still quite pricey. $9.00, and thats without mailing costs.

Mean while, I have a brilliant idea.  I got me a Formum Cap, it has a little milage on it, a little grease stain here and there, and maybe a bent bill.  But, I think I can auction it off.  Yeah, that's the ticket.  Sell to the highest bidder.

As my bid letters say on a timber sale.  Any and all offers can be accepted or rejected.

Jeff, I got a bunch of Staples Forestry hats that are cheaper than $9,00, buy them and change the logo. 8)

Count me in too  8)

Nine bucks plus shipping....that's not bad. I bet you sell a bunch of them. I hope they are available by Christmas time, I think I know a guy who'd really like one.  ;)

 8) 8) 8)

Put me down for one.
They'll be good to wear when you go places to meet other members.
We can look for the hats in the crowd.
Jim ;D

I would like to buy 2 please.
EZ

 I would like to get 2 of them when the come in Jeff.

Thanks for all of your effort to make this Forum what it si.. :)

Jeff, please put me down for two of the new designs.  I hwas honoered almost two years ago with an original, but the new one would be wonderful.   Let us know the cost for shipping as well as the cost of the hat.  Also, let us know the address to send the dollars. ;)

I don't want to wait until X'mas for a FF hat so let me know how much (you need to make something for your trouble) and put me down for two.

One for social occasions and one for work. ;D

For nine bucks U.S. Ill take four.(Couple for my fat cranium and a couple for helpfull  fellow millers up here). Ill bet you could make a few coins to help with the site expenses. If ya had tee shirts, Id buy alot of them too. I live in teeshirts. ;D

I think he means tree shirts.  ;)

QuoteI think he means tree shirts.  ;)

:D :D :D :DYour Mamma :D :D :D :D

   I'd take a couple. Let me know if you need $ in front. We know where you live..  lw

I think he keeps his money in back.

I'll take two.  Need to have one for demos and shows. 8) 8)

I got the prototype today and I like it. If'n I dont get to much negative feedback tonight on the looks I will order them tomorrow.

I will create some sort of shopping cart or something so you guys can order them so Tammy can keep track who wants what. I'll let ya know when that is ready.


Look O.K.?  They are a good material with a strap and brass snap buckle fastener.

Yup looks good to go 8) put me down for a couple :) :)

I think they look fine, Now how about those FF tape measures?

BTW I'll take two

   I need two also as well too. Don't know if I can do the shoppin cart thingy,got no cc. Let me know where to send chickens and turnips :D

Oh yeah! The hat doesn't look too bad either.  :D
Thanks

There will be no credit card.  You will just order the hat, it will send me your address so I can ship it and it will send you an address so you can send a check or sumthin.  

If I try to just keep track of the "I'll take two's" I'll get mixed up. Tammy ordered boxes from somewhere so we will be getting shipping containers.

Wow FF tape measures  8)gotta get some what else can we think up :D

Heya Jeff.
PM me your snailmail addy and Ill send you off whatever it takes to get about 4 of them hats. They look good(so does the model ;D) ....now, just for the record, the grinning smiley is crosseyed...so is the goofy one with his tung stickin out :P

Got any FF bumpers stickers.  ;D
EZ

They look great Jeff, guess I'd better just say the model is a nice looking young lady. (I'm afraid if I said anything else I might get my butt kicked)

Since I know you don't have anything better to do in your spare time and cold weathers coming on what do you think about FF sweatshirts? Oh yeah and I second the tee shirts idea, from now until spring thaw I wear nothing else.....above the waist that is. :P

Jeff,
The hats looks good. Cute model too. Your a savvy salesman Jeff! You could have modeled it youseff' but OOoohhh NNnnoo had to find a good lookin' model somewhere. That'll bring the orders in for ya'. ;)
Gus

Just let us know how to order.
Thanks, Gus

I'll take a couple too (by dat I mean 2 also).

Mark

The hats will be in Monday or Tuesday. I'll try to come up with an ordering system by then.

I priced T-shirts and if I want the logo colored its pricey and ya gotta do a big run. Problem is I dont have 6 or 7 hundred dollars at any one time to get them. At least not right now I don't. The hats were a stretch.

Jeff,
I would like a couple them hats too.  Keep me in mind.  That way I'll look like I know what I'm doin' when I'm planting trees.  What with this rain and all I can hear them trees growing!!  (I think they grew at least two inches today)  Of course I don't have a FF tape measure so I can't be sure.... :'(

McGruff, yer close enough you could pick them up one day and save da postage.

And it would be worth the trip!!

Wull your invited anytime. Ya just gotta wait till I get the hats. How far are you from Mt. Pleasant? I'm only another 20 minutes or so up 127

Only 45 minutes or so to the casino, (cross country).  It depends on how fast we drive.  We usually just poke along and look at the country side.......    

McGruff,

Does your username give a clue to what you did in a former life?  You have heard about the tragedy in our community this past week. (Harrison)

Hey, I want a had too!!!!! ;D ;D
How can I get one? :'( :'( :'(
Fabíola

by reading the whole thread. ;D

I'm trying to make this thread longer for Fabiola to read...

Actually, it is my current life, (for 7 years13 days) until retirement.  Then the tree farm kicks in  ;DI'm just a normal guy trying to make a living.  

That truely was a tragedy.  I feel for his family and his fellow officers and co-workers.  You certainly have to enjoy life and enjoy what you have, because you never know when the good lord will be calling your name.

I do enjoy what I do, though.  That's why my wife and I spend lots of time outside planting, gardening, and being foolish.....like starting a tree farm.  Hey, somebody's grand child is going to need some lumber!! :o

My bruder in law is a deputy and dog warden for Isabella county. His and my sister's other business is a forum sponsor. www.antlergrower.com

good job on the hats Jeff cant wait to get two too. glad to see i'm not the only one that wants one or should i say two ;D

This is too funny!!

I know a guy that knows THE guy that invented Pete's Original Antler Grow.  In fact I bought 5 bags.  Does that entitle me to a free hat??

I bought them from a guy that is from St. Ignace or Detour but works at one of the prisons.  Are you from da U.P.?  

Nope, but I wish I was. Chester (Chet) says that I can stay up der if I want. Hes a yooper ya know. The Family has a cabin at Detour, owned by my Sister and The grower guy. I sawed most all the lumber up for it, helped build it, and got squaters rights.  We know lots of folks up derand a lotts friends and a couple that work at da prison. The Big guy from antler grower is married to my Older sister. I built the website. They live in Wiedman

Okay.

I may have misunderstood.  When I bought Antler Grow I thought the person that made it was from the UP.

Weidman's not far away either.

See I could make a round trip, get a hat, and some Antler Grow, when I run out!!

I'm definately taking one hat. I may order two more, one for my dad and one for my brother.  Should we send the money first?

Fabiola,
Tudo bem?  Onde voce mora?  I can speak portugese but don't ask me to spell more than that.  :D

I will post a new thread when I have the program ready to take orders on hats. I got some early. I have some right now. We may run out so it'll be first come first serve on the ordering. Once I get reimbursed for enough of them I will turn around and reorder. The hats came to almost 10 bucks a piece. There quote was off and I forgot about Tax at 6%.

I gotta work the shipping out yet. I may just set a price to cover high and low.

I just want to say, I am NOT selling hats. You will be reimbursing me for purchasing your hats for you. ;D

Look for a link yet tonight. Maybe.

O.K., does this sound O.K. before I turn lose the order thing?

Hat: $10
Shipping for 1 hat: $3 (you get a new box too) 8) ;)

each additional hat, add another $1.00 shipping

   yez okez when do we send demonez? lw

Watch for a thread called Getcherhat :)
