Mine was stiff enough that there were a few times when I put a hat on over it just to mess around, then took it off and it went right back up to normal.

you're talking about hair, right? :naughty:


mine does that to an extent, but i have thick curly hair, so it's prone to falling over if i knock it around too much. which is a pain in the butt. on the other hand, if i make sure not to totally squash it, it works just fine.

Mine was a wee bit curly at first, but after as much hairspray and dying as I used to do, it was too fried to have any life or resiliance, so it wasn't that hard to keep under control.

i agree, that works out quite a bit. so long as it isn't wet, the curls aren't a problem. it's the thickness that's the problem. it's just too dam[i]n[/i]ed heavy. stupid gravity.

What do you spike it with?

[QUOTE=honkybrewster]What do you spike it with?[/QUOTE]
a little bit of glue (to keep the form) and alot of hairspray (to hold it up).

Depending on the length, the glue might be weighing it down even more. When my hawk was a lot longer I'd put on some hairspray to shape it, then run some melted knox gel through it, push it together into a point, and let it dry. It was unbreakable.

i've been meaning to try that. too lazy though.

Ah well. It's actually some work to figure out how to make it just right.

What's the cheapest website to order band shirts from? Interpunk and the like are so expensive.

punkstuff.com is decent and has a fairly good selection

Thanks, man, I'll check it out.

You aren't going to find many places with shirts under say 15 nowadays, unless you go to an online distro that does their own screen printing, then it may be cheaper.

Shucks, I was aiming for a $13 ceiling. What ever happened to the good ol' days...

Inflation

Does anybody know a website like interpunk in Canada so I don't have to pay as much for shipping and exchange rates?

record store?

[QUOTE=CDR_Cool]record store?[/QUOTE]
XD nice.

Local shops' shirts are usually really highly priced though.

[QUOTE=CDR_Cool]record store?[/QUOTE]
There are no good record stores anywhere near where I live. So I have to buy CDs and stuff from interpunk and angryyoungandpoor.com.

Has anyone here had any experience with doing DIY merch stuff for local bands?
I have a pins making machine and used to have the supplies for silkscreening until I ruined them, and am planning to start doing shirts, patches, and pins for local bands.
Has anyone had any experience with this...?

i have a pin maker and make pins for 2 local bands

upperkut is my friends alternative band and shane is me name. i charge a buck but the pins a stupid 2 inches... meh, it works.

cool...yeah, I've been doing the pins thing on a small scale, but am looking to do a lot more than just pins. I live in Utah so there's not a huge scene here, but I've been wanting to get more involved in it recently. I just don't know where to get started, and haven't quite decided how much to charge, or wheter it's worth it to charge a bit more for 'Made in the USA' shirts or not, etc.

by "made in the USA" shirts do you mean non-band shirts? or shirts actually made in the usa. and for patches, i take the time to make them by hand. if you're going to sell them, pins= 75 cents (if small scale) patches= at least a dollar, depending on detail, color, etc. and for shirts= same as patches but...at least $10 i would say and then if more people buy them, slowly raise the price. and yeah, i live in chicago and the scene sucks. except for one anarchist/ vegan march at a meat factory...

i think he means fair-labor shirts, ie not from a sweatshop.

Where can I pick me up one of these fancy "pin makers?"

does anyone know how to make a tattoo gun? i know the basic idea, but obviously ripping up an old walkman isn't gonna do much.

No, but it's probably not a very good idea to do anyway.

sanitation isn't much of a problem. it's no different than piercing yo' ear, you have to heat the needle up. and so long as you don't start trying to tatoo intricate designs on eyelids, i don't think there is much to worry about.

[QUOTE=Anarcho Poser]Where can I pick me up one of these fancy "pin makers?"[/QUOTE]

eBay and thrift shops are the only places I know.

the needles are fuc[i]k[/i]ing thick. they're hard enough to just get through the skin - getting them in a blood vessel would be bad news, man.

i'm just that much of a bad ***. i used to shoot up all my junk with a ****ing turkey baster.

how do you make DIY shoes

how might i go about making hair dye would just normal food dye work in large amounts?

[QUOTE=XpunksXdeadX]how might i go about making hair dye would just normal food dye work in large amounts?[/QUOTE]
i'm no expert, but i really doubt it. i think it'd just wash right out (or sweat out, or just come out on its own).
