    just an idea..

    Not really sure if this would be the appropriate place for it but here goes.

    Does one exist or has anyone ever thought about offering AO/AGD gun mats?

          Thats a pretty sweet idea, a nice 18x18 would fit perfect on my little work area.

          How big are they usually made by the way?

            The ones I have handy are roughly 12.5"x16", 12"x19.5" and 16"x24".

            I would buy an AGD one.

              I'd buy a couple myself... now we just need someone to figure out how to produce some.

                I actually contacted http://www.tekmat.com/ in early Feb about this. They do do custom mat and my guess was that there would be probably enough interest to sell about 40. It would run $30 bucks to brake even, wasn't looking to make a profit I just want a mat too.

                I liked the idea of having an exploded x-valve diagram, an o-ring call out that was to scale, some AO "circle hex" / AGD branding. Maybe some level 10 diagrams.

                I started playing around with a template but I need some one that knows more about the graphic file type required by the company. I was basically grabbing tech images from the AGD page and inserting them in power point as a proof of concept.

                The info i received back from tekmat was
                They have two standard sizes 12" x 36" (long gun), 11" x 17" (hand gun)
                Design file type should be "Vector Al" or "EPS" this means nothing to me at this point and I did not research it further.

                Obviously we would need permission from AGD before doing anything final but if anyone has some graphic skills and wanted to work with me I wouldn't mind pursuing this further.

                      I would take one. The exploded view of valves and O-ring diagram/chart are great ideas. Would be cool to tie into the graphics that we have here on AO now...

                          Need someone familiar with illustrator to set up the images.

                            forget it. with most of the talk going on around here lately, people would want it made out of aluminium so they can have it anno'd to match their guns but still retain the classic look.

                            i don't need the diagram, but a compartment or 2 to keep things from rolling around or off the mat would be useful, if you can even do this from this company.

                              lol. sounds like someone has been burned by the hot topics around here...

                              With the size of the mats it would be quite possible to have all of those choices... it would be interesting to have a couple of different choices of what is on the mats.
