Title: US Saber-tote bag (now approved) Post by: Vixus PriX on March 05, 2014, 04:43:07 PM finally I got permission from ultra to attempt to sell this bag... anyway,
The bag will look like this: (it comes in tan and black) (http://www.american-armynavy.com/Dufflebags/Bag-2278web.jpg) I will add: elastic straps on the inside to hold light sabers elastic straps on the outside to hold blades large pockets to hold couplers, blade plugs, etc. small pockets to hold retention wrenches, retention screws, color discs, etc. (I also intend on adding a patch if I get enough money) any other suggestions will be added. Title: Re: US Saber-tote bag (now approved) Post by: Racona Nova on March 05, 2014, 04:47:30 PM Will the outside straps hold the blade(s) in vertical or horizontal positions? IMO it's more suitable to transport them vertically...

IMO it's more suitable to transport them vertically... I was thinking horizontally, because they might fall the other way... gravity pulls down so it might pull the blades down... make sense?Title: Re: US Saber-tote bag (now approved) Post by: Master Rel on March 05, 2014, 04:55:49 PM Who will be selling these?
Where will these be sold from? Official as in Ultra Sabers is going to sell them on their site or you are trying to sell out of your house? Is there a link to the sales point? Title: Re: US Saber-tote bag (now approved) Post by: Xaeyon on March 05, 2014, 05:04:42 PM ^^ GAH! NAMECHANGE ^^
but still the same old Ortolan :D Good points though... To whit: What kind of shipping range will be offered? Title: Re: US Saber-tote bag (now approved) Post by: The 97th Acolyte on March 05, 2014, 05:42:00 PM I was wondering where this went. xD
But yeah, its (still) a great idea! I'll definitely sign on for one, if shipping to the UK is: 1) Available, and 2) Affordable. Kudos, Vixus. :) And the straps holding sabers horizontally makes more sense to me, too...

I believe I will be selling them Im the only person selling them (unless US wants to take the idea... I'm not in it for profit, just to provide the service) Im not sure about sales just yet... I'm working on that right... mow.

Yeah, somehow it makes sense xD My fault, I thought too practical...didn't consider the gravity effect ;)Title: Re: US Saber-tote bag (now approved) Post by: Vixus PriX on March 05, 2014, 06:26:04 PM it happens.
I'm looking to get a bag to modify for the prototype... It might not be the same bag... I don't know. Title: Re: US Saber-tote bag (now approved) Post by: Guardianofwinds on March 06, 2014, 06:37:10 PM Want! How many do you think you will be able to carry.,like 2 or so?
Title: Re: US Saber-tote bag (now approved) Post by: Vixus PriX on March 06, 2014, 06:46:25 PM what do you mean "be able to carry"?

I suspect Guardianofwinds means; how many sabres are you planning to be able to fit in the bag. :) (I'd guess at least four or five from the style of bag and 'holding system' you propose) Title: Re: US Saber-tote bag (now approved) Post by: Zren Tobas on March 07, 2014, 10:06:14 AM Yeah I wouldn't mind one either. The most hilts I'd have with me would be 4. Put me down if the prices are right.

Maybe only doing 1 side.(I'd guess at least four or five from the style of bag and 'holding system' you propose) basically 5 or 10. Yeah I wouldn't mind one either. The most hilts I'd have with me would be 4. Put me down if the prices are right. No idea how much yet... until I develop the prototype.I'm thinking $8 bag, $2 elastic, $5 to make it, and shipping is unpredictable right now. So maybe $20.00 after shipping. I doubt shipping would be that cheep though. Also, the saber straps could hold saber pikes, as well as other similar things. |
