!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Permaculture Playing Cards - the purple deck

It looks like I gave all the thumbs up I can already!   I gave you some apples!  

I would donate money to this project to help get you all to the next step.  

Maybe the best I can do right now is buy another round of the original cards!



Which are really great.

I would like to hear from you or Andres what size bag of coins it will take to get this project started!!  I think enough people want this and it will turn out great, so if I can push this project forward with a swift kick in the patooty I'll be glad to do so!!

Andres and I have been working on the cards for years now.  I really like the topics and the results of each card.  

Trying to answer your question ....     your question smells a bit like "how long is a piece of string?" to me ...  

I like the idea of doing a kickstarter and the kickstarter does great!  And ....   the last kickstarter did not do great despite having 200 thumbs up before we started ...  

We could just print 10,000 decks of cards and sell them - without kickstarter.   That will cost about $15,000 to $20,000.

We could start off a bit more humbly and get 1000 decks of cards - but the cost per deck will triple.  

This is where kickstarter is nice.  We can plan everything for 10,000 decks and if we get that much, then we move forward.  And if we don't get that much, then we scrap the whole project.



Along the lines of all this, I met with andres yesterday and we looked at four cards.  Two of them are "done" and the other two we came with ideas for improvement.  


To try to address your question:   the giant block is the printing.  

Okie Dokie, at least I now know how long a piece of string is, it's 15k to 20k long.

I've spent some time via phone with my executor this afternoon, we have worked out the wording for his instructions in regard to your hopefully soon to happen crowdfunding.

I may or may not be around to watch this event unfold, when you guys finish the design and feel ready to launch my pledge is just a phone call or email away.

You have my real email addy , if needed just get in touch with me.


Peace
