Aww, they like us. (DIY HAD T-shirts)

Over on the Ben Heck forums, moderator G-Force made his own Hack-A-Day T-shirt. I dunno guys, do we need to start selling them? In the past, our swag has been by give away only. Thanks [Marshall]

It’s been a couple of exhausting weeks since the deadline for the Design Challenge. I’m going to finish up going through the entries and we should have a winner sometime next week.

  • I would buy a tee-shirt! and I am looking forward to the rest of the designs. how many were there?

    I think you guys should definitely sell t-shirts. Not only would I want to score some hacker swag, but what better place for the proceeds of my t-shirt shopping to go than Hackaday?

  • kyle says:

    i’ve been secretly hoping that you would start selling tshirts for a couple of months now. i would make one, but fabric isn’t my preferred hacking medium…i would definitely buy one though.

  • john says:

    how about some site like cafepress.com? it’s easy, cheap and I’m sure allot of people would buy hack a day shirts. I would definitely get one!

  • morcheeba says:

    kyle – the obvious answer is you need to make a fiberglass t-shirt with a copper logo on it! might be a little itch, though… Maybe your preferred hacking medium isn’t pc boards, but hopefully something better. :-)

    Your very own Team Hack-a-Day has been doing it for a while.
    I remember a while back when Ben Heck said that he doesn’t really go to his own forums, well…..

    john – the quality of cafepress s**ks a*s. jinx appears to have nice quality, but hackaday won’t earn a penny from jinx.

  • Phil says:

    CafePress was also a pain for us europeans last time I looked at it.
    How’s about http://www.spreadshirt.net or use more than one supplier.
    Although in the hack-a-day spirit I think people should be rolling their own, maybe using some sort of hackery download from the site, like the postscript for printing the logo as a perl or matlab script.
    How’s about a hack-a-day wearables competition?

  • akmixdown says:

    screw tshirts. I want higher-quality swag. How about some HAD golf shirts or sweatshirts? Us “real” engineers want to show off, too.

  • Tobias says:

    Hey, Im from Gremany and like Your site much!
    I think would buy a t-shirt too. But please tell me the shipping-prices to Germany!

    Greetings from Hannover!

    I think you should sell shirts, I’d buy one I know.

  • YES, PLEASE MAKE SHIRTS! Then have J!NX sell them, cuz they’re pretty awesome!
    w00t! Shirts!

  • PS: Can we have an adobe file of the Hack-A-Day logo? for more application? :)

  • tulcod says:

    @hybridchemistry: uh…. wtf. as said, j!nx won’t pay had a penny. also, check this website for a logo of had: http://www.hackaday.com/

  • kyle says:

    morcheeba (5)- i like your style! yeah, it might be a little itchy, but if thats what it takes to show off my had love, then i think i owe it to myself (and the community) to turn on the mixing tank. still wouldnt mind a nice cotton one though…

  • Pharaoh says:

    I would definitely buy a HAD t-shirt.

  • yuckymucky says:

    I would buy a tshirt or even a hoodie. It would be a good way to get some money for hosting the site.

    Don’t use Cafepress or Jinx though. Something of decent quality and so you can get some money from it.

  • my young jedi says:

    Well in the true spirit of hackaday, someone should come up with a high-tech but low-budget way to laser burn the skull-and-wrench pattern into fabric, or better yet, your own skin.

    but seriously, don’t sell them, give a cool hack on how to make them.
