    Interest in groovy Zam hand plates

    Hello!

    I've made these for Becky as the ones we had weren't right. Zam's hands should have a pointy middle finger bit, ours didn't and Becky felt they were way too large.
    So I made these



    And then I thought, well maybe you lot may want some too so I made these



    They may need a 'little' bit of work to show up a nice groove etc, but it's not hard. Just file along the lines (if you want too) and then spray black. Then spray silver at a shallow angle (keeps the black paint showing in the groove)
    you end up with something like this (first mould, it's since changed, and first attempt)



    I don't know what to pass them on for ($ vs £ etc) so give me an idea if you're interested

    Re: Interest in groovy Zam hand plates

    £10 untrimmed then?
    2 plates and the thumb bits.
    You just have to cut them out. that way you choose the thickness. No idea what postage will be though. Not much as they're as light as a feather.
    Well, a large feather

    According to this it's about £1.50 plus a little padded bag, that's about $4 I think? location in the US is irrelevant. Big flipping county to be irrelevent but there you have it. LOL

    about £10 to your door dude

    Do you want to check in to what it would be to Canada? We've apparently got some sort of wonky postal system - everything costs more and everything arrives waaay late.

    No, it's about £10 to get them sent to you, unrecorded mind, in Canada.

    Those who have paid, their all in a jiffy bag and I'll getem posted tomorrow. Thanks

    No... it can also go here as it is a "limited run" sort of thing. If you were gonna sell off the rest of your Zam parts, then it would go in the Cargo-Hold.

    Clear as mud eh?

    16 Dollars or pounds? Just want to double check!

    I know it says $ above, but $16 (dollars) sounds a little low in price. NOT THAT I MIND!!

    Re: Interest in groovy Zam hand plates

    John,

    Just a suggestion.....but you should probably just say it's this much as the base price in pounds and this much for shipping to the US and this much for shipping to Canada. If postage to Canada is only 8 errrr.....pence?? cents?? more than to the US (1.58 as opposed to 1.50) but I'm paying a total of 10 pounds (which is a little over $20.00 US) compared to those in the States who are paying $16.00 US the math doesn't really work. However, I think the 10 pounds is a more than fair price so I don't mind paying it. I just thought I'd mention that it's likely better to just price in one currency and stay in that currency so you are sure to get the same amount from everyone and your costs etc are covered. Paypal on it's way!

    Re: Interest in groovy Zam hand plates

    Good idea... post the price in pounds (since that's what you use in the UK) then figure out how much that is in US dollars for us across the pond. Then post the shipping costs that you came up with - just so everyone know what they are in for up front! Thanks!

    He doesn't even need to figure out the US Dollars as Paypal figures that alll out. It came out to be $20.21 US or $20.60 Canadian. Go Canadian dollar! Woot! It's pretty much on par with the US dollar now!
