I think it is a bad idea to advertise that my shed is a desirable target for the local ratbags when they run out of booze on Saturday night.
Went to the pub this afternoon for a quiet drink and someone who should have known better let slip to a visitor that I was a distiller of fine products. Next thing I know, some woman I don't know is using psychological warfare to try get me to sell her my gin. I can do without that, thanks.

Don't worry, Bill. She never got anything and never will, regardless of how well she flashes her nice jiggly bits.

The women at my local pub have a great sense of humour and if I wore that shirt just once, I would have to live with the fallout for a very long time, probably longer than I'd want :D

The T shirt sounds a good idea to me. If there’s enough interest maybe you could do a couple of options, one discreet version with maybe just a logo etc and one bolder version for those who don’t need to keep such a low profile?

In my neighborhood sometimes crazy people come around selling random stuff while im tending bar

Several times various sex toys err personal massagers were the random items

I doubt a dildo shirt would draw any attention on anyone with the crazy folk around.

I do get rid of them easy enough if stuff gets too wild

Got me a problem solver.

Oh and regarding an HD shirt, i think a good design is a ball mason jar silhouette with frog eye bubbles in it that says "hush" in script inatead of ball and has little hd's in said frog eyes

In the spirit of home distilling, I vote for one off small batch limited availability tshirt runs every so often. Change it up. Cover production expenses and the rest gets donated to HD.

Cheers,
Jonny

I was curious if this ever happened after a long Hiatus. Wish it would have happened by now. I'll start with I know a guy lol. THere is a small local guy that used to do my shirts that may be interested in small quantities. The last time i worked with him it was just him in a small garage. I also know a guy that i went to school with that has a fairly large shop that does printing and also had a smaller screen print area, not sure if he still does that or not. I could reach out to them with ideas of how to proced with this if you would like. I don't want to step on toes just offering. I don't have an interest in making any money on this nor do i know how to make sure the funds go back into this sight. I'm sure there has to be some kind of legality to this that makes it more difficult than need be. I'll see if I can figure out how to turn my notifications on just incase someone is interested.
