Range vests
I just picked up a nice lot of safety vests on ebay. They are Dickies brand, lime color, in all sizes. Even "rocketeer medium""(3X). Ten to twelve of them (of fourteen) will be donated to the club. When they get to me, I'll see what can be done to "Woosh" them up. If anyone has any suggestions, by all means throw them out there.

I know I'm not a WOOSH member, but that's funny right there, I don't care who you are!

while it is true that Woosh has a few members who are a triffle larger than some of the younger generation(and I'll wager most clubs have a few)...keep in mind that we are a Wisconsin club, those vests may need to go over parkas .

I'll have to remember that for my middle age spread. I visited Wisconsin a few years ago for an old college room mate's wedding. It was about this time of year and the lakes were still full of ice shacks. I must say that the folks at every stop I made in Wisconsin were some of the nicest folks I've ever met. I was even offered the chance to pilot an ISOC? racing sled after the owner found out I rode motorcycles. If I had been able to stay another night I would probably have taken him up on it and became the first sober Tennessean to crash an expensive race sled in Wisconsin.

You might consider contacting Stickershock about how well his vinyl decals would adhere to the vests. You could have WHOOSH on one line on the back and below it a launch crew position, i.e. RSO, LCO, Safety Check, Staff, etc. Have at least two of each for the person relieving the position or as a back-up.
Just a thought. Chas

I appologize if my size reference offended anyone, there was no malice intended. I heard that reference somewhere once, and it has stuck with me. I think it's funny. I myself am quite comfy in a "rocketeer small" (2X).
On another note, I too am a big fan of Mark Hayes' work. Got a box from him just this week. Though I'm no expert, I suspect cut vinyl graphics is not the right choice for a mesh range vest.

that sounds like a job for a 2-3" stencil & a can of black paint.
then too loose fitting clothing is more comfortable in 90F temps. |

I can't remember where I saw it, but several years ago someone had a vest that had a body tube with fins glued on the back with a nose cone glued to the front, making it look like a rocket had gone through him...... |

I often think about making a hat in that fashion.
