Only Days left to help support the Hard Core Hikers and Bob - Pat Peoples!!

I've just relisted these for the last time on ebay(before the offer expires) as I will be sending the Card with monies and other stuff I've put together on Dec. 15th, if you would like to help out and be a part of this offer please do so today and get a Beautiful Hanging Xmas Ornament(PLUS STICKERS) while supporting a great cause at the same time!!!
You can also get these direct from me by going to my website http://Fishinfreds.com or if you prefer to Ebay it go here now http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5941461305&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT

Here is what they look like ....Hiker on one side and the AT on the other

Wow, those look great! Handmade gifts are THE BEST!

I was a little worried about where the wood originated, but I found this notice practically buried on his site:

<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0 VSPACE="0" HSPACE="0"><TBODY><TR><TD align=left>Items seen on this page are made from "Recycled </TD></TR><TR><TD height=8></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE><TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0 VSPACE="0" HSPACE="0"><TBODY><TR><TD align=left>Redwood" from old barnwood , torn down play structures,etc. , if you know where I can find more please let me know ...don't let this beautiful wood go to waste!

Fred, just a suggestion, but you might might want to make that more visible, since many hikers would cringe at supporting redwood timber harvesting. Perhaps you could just insert "salvaged" every time you say redwood so it reads: "salvaged redwood"
Just an idea. Good luck, my order is coming!

Fred,

Sorry I missed your earlier post. Pretty hard not to support Bob and Pat Peoples and besides I'm partial to handmade things.

Just went to your website but didn't see a specific way to place my order. Give me a shout off-line and let me know how to get that process rolling.

Thanks for your support in this "Everyone" ,I have updated my website to hopefully make it easier for anyone else to purchase with a link to paypal but if you need to mail a check just email me and I will send you the address and info .
ALSO YES THESE ARE ALL MADE FROM RECYCLED REDWOOD THAT CAME FROM SOME TORN DOWN PLAYSTRUCTURES AT THE CITY I USED TO WORK FOR (NICE BEAMS that were going to be just thrown out and wasted), I've also blown up that part to be more visible now ,Thanks for the advice !!!!!

One slight problem. There are so many things underlined, but none of them appear to be a link to an order page. Similarly, the photos don't seem to link to an order page.

How the heck do I make an order?

:confused:

Haha, I thought the same thing. I see underlined text and I automatically want to click it. :D

Also, I think I will be placing an order soon. Probably next day, but right now I have a paper to write. :( Too bad I'm :confused:

But yes, order forthcoming.

I used to have this on my website but I took it off because people seemed to think they were going to get some rotting Redwood....I still take it with me to some of the wood carver shows and now its back on top of the Hiker page :)
ONLY 7 DAYS LEFT TO GET THESE BEFORE XMAS!!!!!!!
The card for Bob and Pat is actually starting to get some names on it !
Thanks again!!!

Also, it's tough to tell what size some of the items are. I don't know speicifically how it could be done better... maybe taking a picture of all the items together, with a letter under the item referencing what that item is. That would give size comparison to all the items, and make it easy to pick out which a buyer wanted. Maybe that'd be too much trouble...

Me for example, I'd want one that's small and thin, but one with a white blaze, one with the AT symbol, and one with the hiker. Maybe bigger than the 3/4, but I don't think I saw a 1 3/4 that has the hiker. Or I could be just confused.

Anyway, yeah, I'll get into it all and try to figure out what to order.
