Scorpio, I'll let you take care of the GB - I've served my time on them :). Lets let Cegga make up a prototype and I'll photograph it and use it some and do a write up. I might ask Lou1661 / Dougster / QDanT / Jon D if they want to come over to the cottage and we can all contribute to a write up

Hi _scorpio_

The second one doesnt have Cegga's trademark shaped head, it was more the size that apealed to me.

Just to clarify, is the GB going to consider two types of axe? if so, are they going to be an FSA type and the gotland type? apologies if I have this all wrong.

Thanks

RR

Is the plan to put forward a range of axes for us to individually make a choice or are you simply planning to come with a couple and hope the majority want that type? Personally I would like a small forest axe. How about asking Cegga? If it's just as easy for him to make several different types from his standard range as it is for him to make lots of the same type then maybe that will suit everyone. Does this make sense? Better that everyone is happy and catered for if Cegga can do so surely?
 
I might be interested in a small axe for my back pack but as this is the first I have seen of these axes (and I think they look fantastic) I am a bit worried about price. I dont want to put my name forward if it is going to be out of my pocket money range. Could someone (Via PM if they want) let me know ball park figure for something like that?

am i allowed to do it though? i will be doing it through my dads accounts because of age

Just read back over the post to see if theres some sort of consensus of the top 2 or 3 axe styles and noticed I missed this one before. That could be a problem legally, even if your Dad's ok with this scorpio. Would it be easier if Cegga set up a Paypal account just for this buy and we pay the gift on it? Or would that make too much work for Cegga? :confused: Just a thought.
Do you guys think this would be a good time for a poll? A Hawk/ Gotland, the now famous picture one :p and a similar design smallish axe.
That would give Cegga an idea of numbers for each and maybe a rough idea on costs for us?
Doing a master copy of the hawk is probably a good idea, the other 2 are more straightforward in design and should be ok for an order without a master :D

Cheers
Ness :)

Agreed but could we see some pics of the three? selected with measurements and then when known the costs; or at least pm costs to all concerned?

I suspect, unless we go with an axe Cegga has made before, dimensions, prices and pictures are all up for debate just now. When I did the group buys, we used one model (which we knew the dimensions of etc. as Cegga made the original to my design). Until Scorpio / Cegga settle on a design, make and test a prototype, these can't be known. This will be a long process so we all need to be patient - this is one guy, creating something unique to a high quality at a low price.

I used to be fairly "tight" on the process. When Cegga found time to make a batch, I put a post up and it was "first come, first served" - might seem officious but it meant that we avoided all the "is it ready yet" debates, also meant that no-one disappeared, dropped out etc.

I'm sure Scorpio will work out his own way of doing this stuff - but bear in mind that a large number of custom axes, made in someones spare time is not an overnight process
