    That's neat, Hawk, and it's neat to have watched you learn over the last couple of years in that group.
    Hope you enjoy your niece's visit.

    yeah, I'd buy one.

    However, I think the trend is definitely moving AWAY from flip phones and toward smart phones. I know you've already made a bunch of that design. But, I'd consider a larger case to accomodate an iphone sized phone - perhaps horizontally loading would look smart on a kilt belt.

    I dig the hook closure and the tooling work.

    I know you are doing the phone wallets for funds for your group Nighthawk but a long time ago I learnt that retail pricing was made up of what it cost you to obtain the goods (you have said it was $15.00, but no mention of your time) and double it, then add 50%.

    As I said in an earlier post your $25.00 donation price was extremely reasonable and even your $35.00 retail price would still be under the odds.

    I think they will wing their way out of the tent on the next day out

    I have a design for those, as well!

    That's what I figure for belts, actually! And thanks for the words of encouragement! I certainly hope so! Nighthawk needs a new tent!

    Thumbs up

    I'm absolutely not an impulse buyer, but if it fit my phone I'd sure want to buy one immediately. Those look fantastic.

    Yeah I think $35's a fair price. It's not everyday you get anything nice thats handmade and original such as these. Good job

    Twenty five bucks is a steal! I think you could price it quite a bit higher and still sell, but as you said, it's for charity.

    Very nice work.

    These are verra nice indeed NightHawk. I agree also that $35 is a fair price. You should be able to sell these without to much hassle.

    Does your group have a website? It seems very interesting, and I'd like to take a look.

    Thanks,
    Mike
