my DKM flag my friend made for me, i helped a bit.[/QUOTE]
Who makes a flag, and why?

Anxious 06-25-2005 04:22 PM

So you can wear it on your ***.

[QUOTE=Anarcho Poser]Who makes a flag, and why?[/QUOTE]

I asked the same question to myself, especially one for a band. One of your country maybe, but not a band.

metty16 06-25-2005 04:36 PM

No one will even know what it means/stands for unless someone tells them (the DKM flag)

It would fun to make one of your OWN band.

My band were meant to be playing a gig but it was cancelled so we are going to play in my friends basement instead and he is going to make a flag/banner of the band. Plus we will only be playing in front of my friend

alright, im about to embark on making t shirts, so can anyone pass along some political slogans (an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind) or perhaps some symbols from bands (the strike anywhere three pointing arrows, crass logo), or maybe even some quotable quotes from, say.... lyrics (from all the way in the back of the food stamp line its THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE LEFTOVER CRACK!).

cheers

Brain Toad 06-25-2005 09:40 PM

I tried out my AC/DC stencil today, and it turned out horrible and made me waste a piece of canvas :upset: The stencil was too small and really crap. So then I decided I wasn't done and freehand painted a hammer-sickle onto a piece of scrap white fabric, and it turned out really good. I may attach it to some sturdier fabric and used it as a small patch. I'll take some pics when it dries.

Anarcho Poser 06-25-2005 09:53 PM

I've got a hammer and sickle printed out, I was going to use it for a global studies project, but I never did. I think I'm gunna make it into a stencil, as soon as I stop being a lazy****.

I also wanna make a che shirt.

Brain Toad 06-25-2005 09:57 PM

Che is so f'ucking trendy now, its quite sickening.

Anarcho Poser 06-25-2005 10:06 PM

Yeah. But that's ok, I'm making it myself, with a niftier catch phrase than all these other lewzers!

Hey, does anyone know how to get stuff for free? I plan on not getting paid alot (think $0.00 an hour (way less than minimum wage) ) for, well, the rest of my life, and I figured guys might know how to get stuff for free, other than the obvious, like dumpster diving (which I do quite often).

Thanks in advance,
-Nico

At least your making a Che shirt. Anyone who buys Che stuff don't deserve to bear his face on their chest.

I asked some kids one time who were wearing a Ché shirt what Ché done and they didn't know. They just thought it is cool to wear a t-shirt with him on it as everybody does, same with Nirvana t-shirts, it's like automatic cool scene points for them :rolleyes:

Nico, you could collect Social Welfare and still not ahve a job!

sketchyjoe 06-26-2005 08:17 PM

I want the Che shirt that says "I have no idea who this guy is" underneath it.

Major General Despair 06-26-2005 08:51 PM

A girl in my school had a Che hoodie with a star on the front. I asked her if she knew who the guy on the back was, her reply "No, I just bought this because it has a star on the front!"

Maybe cut it an inch or two away from where you'd normally cut it, fold it under, and sew it.

i just dont know where to cut it. should i cut before or after those stitches where the sleeve meets the body of the jacket?

[QUOTE=cheeser_1]this isn't exactly a diy question, but i figured i shouldn't post a whole new thread. i'm thinking of getting new shoes (well, i pretty much have to, my only pair is just about completely worn through the bottom). i'm not getting converse, because they're made in sweatshops now. i'm at the point where i can affort something besides random $15 shoes by a brand that exploits workers, i'm certainly not paying $40 for chucks from a company that does the same.

does anybody know if there are any shoes like it (for reasonably low prices, under $50 for sure)? what about those duane peters shoes (from vision streetwear, aka draven shoes, google either of those if you're looking for them, although vision doesn't really have a functional website)?[/QUOTE]

not cheap, but they're a worthy investment

Converge#12 06-27-2005 07:39 PM

Ok today me and my friend were watching dogtown zboys the documentry and we started doing all these oldschool tricks and stuff and wanted to make our own oldschool boards. I searched the internet for directions or blueprints or somthing but i couldnt find anything. I know you can buy the boards but I haven't started work and am short on money. Does anyone know any sites or have directions to make one?

or

I'd go with Santa Cruz just because they're way better.

sketchyjoe 06-27-2005 07:47 PM

I made a skateboard deck once. I can't remember the site I got the instructions from though.

After. Like, the opposite side of them from the collar.

Here is the hammer-sickle patch I made

[url]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v151/PunkRockLoser666/DIY/Patches/Img_0021.jpg[/url]

Here is an old patch I made, first one I did. It was for the band Triggerfish, which Adam Peebles (superskankinactionhero) is bassist for.

From a P to a B is a pretty big jump.

[QUOTE=sketchyjoe]From a P to a B is a pretty big jump.[/QUOTE]
not really, at least it wasn't a Q to a Z or something.

BrightSides 06-29-2005 04:23 PM

Q W E
A S D
Z X C

q isnt that far from z
p and b are farther appart
geeze

cheeser_1 06-29-2005 05:01 PM

i meant the fact that P and B are pretty much the same, except for the little extra loop on the B. i think you may have read way too far into it anyway.
