This may sound daft, but if we could get everyone on the stand wearing an oc t-shirt, I reckon that would go a long way.
If we could get the cost down to circa £5 it would look nicely unified.
Like the idea of separate mini stands, so as to speak. What about an Eiffel Tower build from f 306 parts? maybe a bit far though...

Eifel tower of body panels etc seems doable.
I like themed cars too...
On our wedding day mates filled our car with balloons...looked epic!
I would be well up for an OC tshirt, as would be the wife

The idea of the eiffel tower is an awesome one Grant, and i definitely think that club shirts/hoodys are easily doable...I know Sam has the gear that Tom was using to make clothing, but isnt confident on how long they'll last, and tbh i'll testify to that...my hoody has only been washed a handful of times, and the oc logo on the front is already peeling off. I'd be more than happy to see about starting a group buy for next year, i know a couple of people round my way at least that may well do us a bulk deal.
I'm thinking all the shirts/hoodys in the same colour, and like the one i wore all weekend at FCS, small oc logo on the front, and username on the back?

Yeah I like that I think the jumpers and shirts in the same blue as the forum colour would look really nice with a white logo

+1 ^^^^
Eiffel tower thing can be done prettt easy I rekon.
If we all bring a few bits of 306 we dont want, body panels etc, drills some holes in them before we get to FCS and bring a couple packs of cable ties, be sorted. Plus easy to take down after the show

If you've got some non-stick (greaseproof?) paper you could probably stick it back on with a hot iron.

You can get them stitched...but do cost more.
The work tshirts tom did me have been washed a number of times, probably 40/50 times. No peeling yet.
We just dont wash them above 40degrees and iron over with another piece of cotton.

I've got a colleague at 'school' who owns an embroidery business. He made me a hoody the other day. I can see what prices he could get

I know were talking about embroidery and hoodies but cost is important, I think as cheap as possible and all in the same colour would be good enough. Making the staff different colours will ruin the look of having us all the same.
