Hello and Happy New Year from Gothic Punk Specialty Hardware,


Hello and Happy New Year from Gothic Punk Specialty Hardware

I guess this blog update will basically have three sections – Announcements, New Products, and New Advertisements.

Lets start with Announcements:

We are searching for models for our next photo-shoot. We need one male and one female model with a gothic/punk/industrial type look to be our next models. The shoot will be sometime in March 2011. It will be in Albuquerque New Mexico. It will be a paid gig. So, if your’re interested, please send a photo to model@gothicpunkspecialtyhardware.com to apply.

We’ve also added free shipping on all orders over one hundred dollars on a permanent basis to the website.

Next: Lets do the New Advertisements.

We booked a spot in Profane Existence for the first time, and here’s the ad that will be appearing in there

And we’ve taken the big step of moving up to a half page spot in Gothic Beauty Magazine, and heres the spot for issue #33 which comes out at the end of February

Now for the New Products:

We have added body jewelry to the catalog. We’ve wanted to add some body jewelry for a while, but haven’t gotten around to it until now. We’re starting with 316L Stainless Steel jewelry, which is surgical stainless. Perhaps eventually we’ll get into niobium and titanium, and organics etc. but that will be a ways down the road.
Our first piece of body jewelry is a plug with a spiked tip. heres a pic. The one in the picture is a size 00.

Next, spurred on by a customer request, we have added a metal collar to the catalog.

At the time of writing, those are only up on the etsy site. They should be on the regular site soon. There is a black one as well as the raw aluminum version.
We will be making some that have some features machined into them probably at some point this month as well.

We have wanted to ad jackets to the catalog for a long time now, this month we put the first one up. The idea is that we’ll find cool jackets at military surplus and thrift stores and the like, and dress them up with patches and spikes and other hardware in the studio and put them up on the site.
Here’s a picture of the first one we did:

It came and went, but we have a pile of other jackets to treat and post, so there should definitely be more coming soon.

Finally, we added a new gas mask to the catalog- here’s a pic:

What we did here was to take a British Tactical Gas Mask, and machine our own custom hardware to screw into the air intake ports. The tusks on this “Metal Tusk Gas Mask” are cut from solid Engineering grade Aluminum, are threaded to screw into the mask, and have a black oxide finish. The tusk’s are 3″ long and 1.5″ in diameter. These are limited in supply because our supply of gas masks is kind of iffy.

Anyhow, That’s the news and the excitement from the G.P.S.Hardware studio for this month – Thanks as always for your interest
