RB, thats a fantastic idea,
I had been thinking of doing something for myself along similar lines - with the thought process that if I did it, others might follow. The problem of multiple identities at a moot can be more than a little confusing so a name badge would ease the situation.
I've seen name tapes much that same as US forces are portrayed on TV, black embroidery on a green, edged badge/tape, surely they'd fit the bill.
I don't want to hurl this in Tony's face straight off, but perhaps it is something that could be offered as part of a membership deal, at extra cost of course. BCUK logo and a name, say a base cost for so many, with extras at a fixed price per unit over that.

Perhaps I've jumped the gun on this but in my mind, its a winner.

A great idea RB,

Ours come in handy on meets etc. - I'm rubbish at "faces to names in a crowd"

It would be worst of all with the members who have the cartoon avatars - I'd probably die of shock if Toddy didn't resemble an extra from South Park and I'd expect British Red to have hairy ears at least...... :lmao:

I think the good thing about the L.S.G. badges is the simplicity in the design, single colour thread, no fancy patterns and very little wastage of backing material.

And the price was really keen as well.

To quote the all time classic western Blazing Saddles: "Badges! Badges! we don't need no stinking badges!"

I don't! we should be able to introduce ourselves to one another without "Oh that's Rod simply must talk to him",or "oh s*** not that a***, I'm out of here!".

We are all part of the collective :borgsmile

Guy on LSG has a wife who does such things for a fantastic price. She has one of those industrial programmable machines that produces them. For a small run its a matter of a few quid a badge (personalised)

You could PM English Herts on here or PM me and I'll put you in touch

I like the idea of a Name badge it would definately help at moots.:D

I just ordered a machine that would make name badges just like you want I think :)
I wont get it for three weeks. size will do anything upto 5 by 8 inches could do a bushcraft badge with name on it. I guess I might need permision to use logo ? will someone pm the correct way to find out what I must do. I will be looking to make something from this too I need to pay for machine but my time is free.
