Goalieboard

It may be glove material. It's basicaly the same as Jenpro, just thinner. It would be alright for graphics, but I don't think I would put it in any high wear spots.

I think there are other companies with orange in their stocks, but they just are not making it public knowlege as it's probably reserved for the pros only.

If you really wanted orange Jenpro, I can get some (regular weight), but not until Christmas time. That's when the next shipment is due.

I might take you up on that chrisco! It would be nice to have some around.

I also do goalie artwork if anyone is interested in that sort of thing. Here are a few pictures of what I can do. I will try to get some more up here soon! I can also do these in color. Click on them to enlarge

Hey Sara - how's it going? Sean's blocker is working really well for him. You did a fabulous job on it.

But I'm liking the artwork. Do you draw off a photo? What would it run if I sent a shot of the boy? His team 2 years ago had a professional shoot and made posters for each player. I think a drawing would be pretty cool to go with it.
P/S

Hi Pam/Sue,

Thanks! I am glad the glove is working out for him!

I usually draw off of photos. Even if it's slightly blurry or parts of it are missing (feet/legs/arms chopped off) I can fill in the missing parts, in fact I had to do that on the ones above. But the clearer the photo is the faster it is for me to draw.

Price depends on how big the picture is, how much background is included, and also the medium used. A whole body portrait like the one above would run around $150, and would be around 12" x 12", but that size isn't set in stone, it would vary depending on what you would want and the shape of the picture itself. I can also matt and/or frame it for you when it's finished for a small fee.

For those that never read reviews....

I had my knee wings replaced and calf wings recovered by Sara recently.

First try on the ice with these recovered...wow... what a difference. Thanks again, Sara!

Shemps pad project

A great example of the excellent work being provided by PAW (beccaraptor).

I'm sold! I will be sending my pads to Sara in the next couple of days. I can't wait to see the finished product.

I can't wait to see your pads Justin! I bet they look stunning in person!

I just acquired a patcher, so once it's all set up and running I will be able to do player glove repalms and small skate repairs too. Pricing will be up on the website as soon as these services are available!

I have done a few more projects lately that I thought I would share. I now offer a tapered style calf wedge with or without jenpro. These are made custom sized depending on your brand of pads. The wedges shown below have the strap tabs along the backside instead of on the edges.



C/A extensions are also available. This one was custom made to fit on the bottom of a Brown unit.



And this is a blocker I just finished!

Sara,
My pads are in the box, ready to be shipped. I had a hard time finding a box they would fit in. They'll be going to the post office tomorrow, and sent via Priority Mail. You should have them by Friday at the latest.

After seeing those calf wedges, I may have you add a set on to my pads as well. I'm going to think about that one.

Becca, that blocker looks great. Do you have brighter pics of the front to see the graphic better? I like the cuff and that glove looks different. What material are you using?

Very nice once again.


Hans

The palm is just the standard Ivory nash palm from Nash, I use them because they are so comfortable! People that try them like them so well they sometimes have me repalm their blocker with those even though the current palm isn't worn out yet.

Here's a shot of the front of the blocker


I am considering having more of the logos embroidered, especially the ones along the sides. I might play with the logo font for the front as well.

Nice job on the Blocker, but the palm is ivory Nash not BS2100 the Nash also comes in Black and Tan

BS2100 is the tan yellow coloured material that was once used as skate liners. Vaughn is still using the solid BS2100 palms as well.
