    Framing a Jersey??

    Does anyone know where i can go to get a jersey framed?
    And how much should i expect to pay for it?

    I thought some of you might know, having framed up your jerseys before!
    Thanks!

    If you wanted to do it on the cheap, you can DIY.

    We got a mitre block, hacksaw, V nailing kit, mallet, tape clamp and Aquadere from Bunnings for under $50. You can then get lengths of nice wood from there (we used Tasmanian Oak), and make up a frame in about an hour when you get the hang of it. Then you get the glass cut to size down the glass shop, cheap glass is about $20 for the Jersey size.

    Obviously not as good as the professional jobs, and if you want to pay $300ish then that's your best bet, but you can get pretty bloody good results and it's an enjoyable thing to make. Jersey's are more involved than a flat picture, but again Google is your friend.

    We made one as a present for a mate's newborn with photo's of his kid we printed and it looks great.

    Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    280 bucks is quite a lot of money, but DIY sounds like a trek.
    I better start saving up now!!

    thanks guys!

    You do a deal with the framers that everyone you get into the shop will pay $280 and you get the extra $30 as a commission, get five people to get their jersey framed and your jersey would be paid for!

    “Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together. The man is a legend!”- Jake White

    Math obviously wasn't your strong point...

    BTW - If you see Bruce at Captured Ideas, make sure you let him know you were directed there from here. For that matter, even if you use someone else, tell them you came from here

    $280 -$250= $30.

    OK - I mis-read 5 x ($280-$250) = $150, which does roughly equal the price of a jersey, where I read as that equalling the price of jersey framing which has already been stated as $250 (not including 'finders fee')
