Hi Adi,
Any news on badges yet please?
The cost of boating is insignificant compared to costs of a young wife and two teenage kids! |

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Normal service on Badges - Poor old Dad is the Weakest Link !!
He's been painting his sewer tube & has not been fettling !
Met 'Johnglenys' today down our yrd , who is also keen to get his badges.
I've been glassing my Transom today (Happy with results) so will try & sort them out tomorrow.
Got 2 pairs at home ready - will photo in morning & post a pic

There they are..... !
Please take into account that these are cast from patterns cast from a 20 yr old badge supplied to Dad a few yrs ago.
I'm not putting down the quality - Not had a complaint yet , but I would say that there is slightly less detail in the Knight than Originals, & of course they are not as shiny, but they are thicker & less likely to break as they are cast not pressed.
Will call Dad tommorow & sort out delivery times - We can then take orders !

Bloody brilliant mate!
What we also need to have is a picture of how they should look painted, i.e. a picture of an original by Norman so we can paint to match as I doubt you'll want to sit there with your little brush colouring them all in! My memory is not so good but I seem to remember red and silver?

I just left mine with the aluminium finish.
I think they look better and they look nicely aged after a couple of seasons.

Ok folks
Just been making a list from this Topic post & the previous one. Looks like I have just enough to cover potential orders.
I have a few sets to go now & will try to do on a first asked first gets basis & will email as they become available so check inboxs !
Dont be disappointed if you dont hear immediately I will get to you - Please let me know by return mail if you still require the badges as I will then pass your order on to the next person in line.
If your registered e-mail on the forum is incorrect I wont be able to contact you so let me know if thats the case !!

Interesting! I had a sort of "gut" feeling they were gold with red, didn't remember the blue. They're in my workshop at present as I'm going to buff them up nice and shiny, so I think I'll spray them gold first, pick out the letters in blue, and the chain mail in red. Then I'll lacquer them. They should look perfect!
