I should have a location shortly, at least I hope since it certainly won't be outside with weather like it is. Got the PVC poles for the Nowak banner and the miniflagners we'll make. Got the banner cloth and drop cloths and I have paint leftover from the last project. If anyone has a PVC pipe cutter or could buy one that would be very good. Also we're going to need a sewing machine. I'll get information shortly and post it here, but we should start early tomorrow. If anyone can bring some small cash to help cover materials bought today (200+ dollars worth) that would be good too. Really, I'll take all the help I can get. I don't want to be stuck doing this myself.
Also, wasn't someone here going to give me a few small used banners to see what we could do with them? I can't find the post so if you see this PM me. I didn't get them at the game last night.
Okay, looks like this is off. Location fell through and I don't know when we'll be able to do this which sucks cause I already got the materials...
I don't suppose anyone has ideas about when we could do this this week if at all? I've already got the materials. And I need a PVC cutter regardless. We must get the poles set up for the Nowak banner before Friday. Don't have a car in the city otherwise I'd be able to do more myself.
I could help out only on Friday because of school and work. Sorry. If it is possible to do it on Friday we could use my garage if needed.
I'd have to take off work. How big is your garage? The cloth I have for the banner is 60ftx5.5ft. I'm dissapointed if we can't get the big banner and 2-pole things done for Saturday considering I already spent the money on it and it's just sitting there but the PVC poles for the Nowak banner are mandatory. They MUST be done and I need a PVC cutter.
2 car garage. But I have a long driveway which would work if it doesn't rain. How much does the PVC cutter cost?
10 bucks or so at Home Depot but I have literally nothing right now. Have you a way of getting it to me if we can't do this Friday? I know there are others out there that can help. I'm unsure why response for things lately has been so sparse.
By PVC cutter I assume you mean a hacksaw. It doesn't take much to saw through PVC, it is in fact, only plastic.
Shows what Home Depot help is really after. I have a hacksaw then. The guy told me I needed a PVC cutter. I said won't a knife work? He said no, and I would have gotten one cept I didn't have the money at the time. Oh well. Hoepfully I can get back out to the burbs and do it sometime this week.
I didn't make it to the game on saturday, got knee deep in hardwood floor refinishing at my place. the 2 banners are in my car for the next game.
Is there any way to do it Friday night, going late/all night if needed? If so I'm in. I may see if there's anyway we can get the warehouse all night too on Friday. Would anyone else be able to help? If we can at least get the banner done and the Nowak PVC poles we'd be good fot this game and do the flagners later.
What exactly has to be done for the Nowak banner? Is it something that could be accomplised in the parking lot around 11 or noon?
No. The poles must be done and in the stadium, really, no later than Friday at 5p. But since that isn't going to happen, I must have it in the stadium first thing Saturday morning. The banner is another issue but I already spent 200 dollars on materials and would really really like to have it for Saturday's game.
I would be able to help Friday night. If we could find a place to work that would be great, otherwise I think my garage would be okay.
Awesome. Andrew Mason thought he could help too. Anyone who can be rounded up, get them. If we have 4 or 5 people we'll definitely get the banner done and have it Saturday.
So who is in? Let's do this tonight. Matt, we can still use your house? Can you bring anyone else? What time should we show?
My house is fine. We can do it whenever everyone is ready. Give me a call for directions. I'm pretty sure I can round up some people to help.
if you're working around 7 or 8'ish tonight and want those used banners I have and are somewhere in/around/on-the-way-to the lakeview area I'll drop them off.
