Bikini Bellpads Alrighty, today I made a bell pad that is laminated with a picture of a hot girl in a bikini. How much would you pay for a kickass bell pad that displayed say, hot people, or musical groups, or themes, or just cool stuff like that? "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. And from this side only! The flight of a half-man, half-bird. Dinosaurs nuzzling their young in pastures where strip malls should be. Cookies on dowels. All those moment, lost in time. Gone, like eggs off a hooker's stomach. Time to die" -Phil Ken Sebben

I decorate my own, thankyou. Sorry, but you can't believe anything I say. I always lie. In fact, I'm lying now.
"Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name,..."
Oh, yes, BTW..."non iligitimi carborundum", look what happened to me.

Where's the option for $0?
Some people have too much free time on their hands (like me at work)...
Personally, I use whatever thumb pad I have around. Some have company names on them, most are just pieces of felt. We're no threat, people, we're not dirty, we're not mean
We love everybody but we do as we please
When the weather's fine,
We go fishin' or go swimmin' in the sea
We're always happy
Life's for livin', yeah, that's our philosophy

Yes, but get these bell pads, and you'll have something more attractive than free time on your hands!

You'd probably have to pay me to use it, unless she was riduculously hot in which case I'll take one for free. Heaven is where the police are British, the chefs Italian, the mechanics are German, the lovers are French, and its all organized by the Swiss.

Like the idea, but I wouldn't pay more than 6 bucks for one. "In offering to you, my countrymen, these counsels... But, if I may even flatter myself, that they may be productive of some partial benefit, some occasional good; that they may now and then recur to moderate the fury of party spirit, to warn against the mischiefs of foreign intrigue, to guard against the impostures of pretended patriotism; this hope will be a full recompense for the solicitude for your welfare, by which they have been dictated." - George Washington

If you made a GUARD that had a picture or name or something, but still conducted, I would definately pay extra for that. I don't really care about the pad....sorry.

Most of the guard a lightish pink...the reinforcing part in the center a little darker...nice distraction, no??

Yes, but you have to admit it's the breast idea you've heard in a while.
OTOH, the insides of guards are CONCAVE.

I would also vote for $0.00. I like the puffy leather bellpads. I was a bit put out that the last one I got from BG was a hot pink leather. My shiny new epee with a soft, pink, puffy bellpad. I am going to get **** from about half the directors in the division for that. Oh well, I have been meaning to try out the clear bellpads that LP makes for a bit now.
Other than preferring the puffy soft leather pads over the plastic ones I do not have much opinion on it. It is a weapon after all. A tool that I will beat the crap out of and toss aside when it breaks. I have never been one to name my weapons or bury them at see when the break or any of that nonsense. Now if you made a conductive colored bell guard, now that I would pay some scratch for, but you better hurry because LP is already working on them! Just another lost soul saved by the (hit) First Church of EPEE!

these are felt, with a photo on the front. Picture will soon follow. "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. And from this side only! The flight of a half-man, half-bird. Dinosaurs nuzzling their young in pastures where strip malls should be. Cookies on dowels. All those moment, lost in time. Gone, like eggs off a hooker's stomach. Time to die" -Phil Ken Sebben

these are reinforced with felt, with a photo on the front, and laminated. Its of similiar pliability to the uhllman or PBT pads. Picture will soon follow.

You could anodize alumunim guard easy enough, but I dont know how long the coating would last. The trick would be making the entire metal colored. "I live my life a bout at a time. Nothing else matters. Not the mortgage, not the store, not my team and all their bulls***. For those 15 touches or less, I am free."

Heh heh, silly me. Here I was thinking that you were making bikini's out of bellpads! Shouldn't plant those mental images in an old man's brain. Especially when he's been "out of circulation" for a while! ;-)

I can't imagine anyone looking good wearing my tattered, filthy, disgusting feltpads as clothing. Talk about a turn off. We're no threat, people, we're not dirty, we're not mean

would certainly be an interesting use for the hole in the center of the bell pads though

Any aspiring fashion designers out there want to take a stab at it?
