Richard, Great setup! Love the use of cabinet pulls for stops. Enjoy the new kids. Brice, I guess you have proven that avatars get noticed.  Just playing around with Photoshop. First, I have to finish the first batch and sell my extras, then.... Peter

I don't think we should pursue the T-Fogtainers, well, not in the immediate future. Maybe sometime in the future to mark a special occasion like tenth anniversary of the FOG or something like that. Let's keep the prestige of the Fogtainers by keeping them limited editions.

I agree Brice, it would give me something to do though while I try to get some work in.

I agree. We need a "basking" period, to pay homage to Peter and his hard work and not diminish the status of the FOGtainers as well.

Add me to the list of people who agree with Brice that we should not be thinking of another batch of Fogtainers, at least not until a long time from now. And even then they should be quite different.

I know that we all get excited about things here, but nowhere did I say that I was embarking on another Fogtainer project. I used the phrase "then ..." in a post a few back. The "..." is not about Fogtainers.
These were meant to be an unusual item at a good price that would be hard to replicate. The scale of participation was enormous. Next time - if there is a next time- who knows what the scale of the project will be.
Another project will be forthcoming - but it will not have anything to do with a systainer.

Peter,
I want to thank you for all your hard work to bring this project to near completion. My Sys 1&2 with the printed labels are beautiful, if one my use that term. They are packed with odds & ends for a kitchen project in Braintree, MA. Will post pictures of them hard at work on the job by the end of the week.
Thanks again, Don

Don, aren't you scared being a New Yorker in MA? Make sure you drop your "r's" at the end of any word that ends with one and add "r's" to the words that end with an "a" and everyone will think you're a local. It's that easy (I'm from California and duped 'em that way!  ) and now back to the fogtainer thread...

Good news/bad news today.... The good news is that my FOGtainers are being delivered tomorrow!!!  I hope that you find lots of good uses for them. I am still thinking about how I will use mine. I have lots of ideas, but need to pcik three of those ideas. The bad news is, I know this because I've just had to pay a customs bill...  Bummer! I was lucky and escaped any this time.

I've got 2x sys2s, and a sys1 coming.
The sys2s are going to be used for my domino & domino assortment, since these will be mostly kept in the workshop & rarely go anywhere else. I don't know about the sys1 yet. I need to find a use for it that will keep it from being wrecked...

Paul,
In all honesty, I have to build a jig for the printer to use to properly position the systainers. Last week and this week I am working on two projects for work that are the most profitable I have had in almost a year. I have gone and taken dimensions for the necessary jig and will be working on it this Saturday.

An update for all those still waiting.
I did finally have the chance to build the positioning jig for the printer and think that I have made it virtually idiot proof. The printing should happen either Thursday or Friday. I can pick up on Monday and then we can pack, get shipping costs, and get this project done.
Thanks for hanging in there with me.
Peter
