I would pass on key rings, I have tons already that are not being used. Sell, or use them for stacked knife/maul handles.

You laugh at me because I am different. I laugh at you because you are all the same.

^This!

Key chains are pretty common place and unless you have some really cool ones, they will possibly just get passe over. You might have to include them as free gifts with purchase to get rid of all 200 of them. I still think the Othello: Leather Edition or even Checker: Leather Edition would be awesome. Yeah... Yeah.. I know what opinions are like.

With the checkers, you could use a border stamp and matting stamp to give it a pattern similar to the plastic ones.

Bill,

Those buttons are really nice looking.

As far as the keychains go I don't plan to sell them, I'm gonna stamp them and send them along with orders. Free stuff sells well around here. Ill probably have my son do a few with other random stamps and he can sell them, he makes the larger key fobs and some bracelets now and sells them on the counter. Some people buy them just because they are cheap and a kid made them. He could sell these even cheaper and I still think the smaller ones would attract more people, I'd never use the larger key fobs but is use one this small.

The game boards are a good idea but I don't have time for projects that I want to do so I don't see myself dedicating the kind of time for that. I don't mind stamping my logo on something and finishing the edge quick and attatching a ring but that's about as far as I'm going to go and that'll probably only be for the occasional customer.

I got enough ill probably be using them for all kinds of stuff. I nailed one to the leg of my stool to level it up the other day. No more rocking stool.

I did think of using them as attached washer handles but I wasn't sure if the English bridle would work as well for that.

There you go!!! I could use some when I go to my favorite breakfast joint. Their tables are always wobbling on me. Must be the weight of the food throwing off the balance of the table :)

Haha, I like that idea.

Here is the first of the ones ill just give away with some orders. My son made it this morning. I don't know what I was thinking earlier when I thought it wouldn't lay with the keys as it clearly will be in the same direction as the keys. I did order a bunch of jump rings from OTB though so ill see if it seems better if I use the small jump ring to go through the hole and then the key ring through the jump ring. I really like the idea of a small keychain as the normal sized key chains are too big for guys and probably too big for a lot of girls too. I'd never use a big one but I would use a small one.

I may have him make some other ones up with some letter stamps and I have the free masons stamp and a few others and then some with maybe some small coin conchos and skull conchos. It won't put him through college or anything but he normally makes a few bucks here and there. He does a little better in the summer when he's in the shop all day and people see him. Its like buying school fundraiser stuff where the people buy it to be nice, not really because they need or want it. Ill post a picture of his little rack, he doesn't have much on it now as he's been a little to busy with basket ball, bowling and now baseball.
