Knowing Pete he would probably just ask that you donate some money to a charity.

@pete roper's post from February 2019 referencing his preference for charitable contributions:

"MSF"/ "Doctors Without Borders "

This was also the post that coined the phrase "Rusty Star Picket " as the object of a preposition.

I'm still around. I'm more than happy for others to manufacture plates to my design. What shits me is when I'm not given credit for the design and people pocket all the profit. By all means make a few bucks to cover your time and effort but if selling them to people add enough to the cost to make a donation to MSF. I don't think that's too much to ask?

Simply stealing someone else's work without any by-your-leave like the pricks in Huddersfield did and selling it without any attribution or charitable donation shits me to tears but as I've said before, every morning I wake up in Bungendore. They wake up in f*cking Huddersfield! That fills me with great joy!

Thanks for the reply and sorry to bother you with this.

Ex Sydneysider here (and part Kiwi but don’t hold that against me, OK?)

100% behind you, your beliefs and intentions. Same guy here!
Not sure how many people may want one but I’ll look at making 4 or 5 and will sell them with attribution to you and a donation to MSF. 

Will post more details once I get the file. I’ll message pressureangle ….

Thanks!

@DucatiGuzziIndian/Andrey,

Thanks for the interest in offering this to the community!

At last roll call (May 2023), there were eight parties interested in nine plates before @Dragonknee inquired in October making a potential for ten (to be verified):

Curious how this latest, authorized, run might be inscribed . . .

"Rusty Star Picket Project Redux " . . . ?

The last genuine original motomoda plate:

How about "Stick this up yer arse you thieving Pommy scumbags!"

Works for me.

[PhillipLarsen]

Confirming I (PhillipLarsen) am still needing one plate. I am in Vancouver BC Canada. Thanks for everyone’s efforts to design and manufacture these.

[DucatiGuzziIndian]

That's funny Pete!

I will work with pressureangle and see how we go... 

Of course the big thing will be determining a final cost. This isn't a money making exercise... it's to help everyone out, so I will post all costs once determined and see where we go from there.

PhillipLarsen: We can ship to Canada with a declaration that it is a Trivet... tax rate is probably better that way. ;-) ha ha.

[PhillipLarsen]

Thanks DucatiGuzzIindian.

I could also have it shipped to Point Roberts, Wa, just a short ride away.

Shipping is much less to there and for lower cost items like this manufactured in the USA I will not need to pay and tax to import in person. 
Thanks

The race is on!

I'm still chasing quotes on my end. DGI has the file on the West Coast. 

[audiomick]

Let us know. I'm still in the market for one, but not in any hurry.

[DucatiGuzziIndian]

I have pricing for the plates and have reached out to Pete to see what he wants donated to MSF.

As soon as I have that I can post the unit cost.

Just FYI, the cost difference between 3/16"/  5mm aluminium (spelled correctly!!!) and 0.080" / 2mm 304 stainless steel is less than 50 cents a unit. So I think the stainless option is best.

 

 

[DucatiGuzziIndian]

OK Ladies and Gentlemen....

 

Roper Plate in 304 grade Stainless Steel, 2mm thick.

Lead time is about 10 days from the time I order them.

I will ensure each is clean with no sharp burrs or roughness before they ship out.

Each will be packaged in a box with protection. (Something sturdy like a Fedex box or UPS box).

Pricing:

If we can get orders for 10; $87 USD each.

If we only get orders for 6: $99 USD each.

All prices exclude shipping. Will advise the cost when they ship....

Prices include a $20 USD donation to MSF, per Mr. Ropers wishes.

I do not want to end up holding multiple plates for months and months so will only do one run. If someone else cares to carry a couple then thats all good too.... just order what you want.

I will likely order these in a weeks time.

Let me know by making a list of names below.

Cheers!
