Thread: Fall Jig Swap Sign-Up

I'm sort of unsure how much postage I should put on the return envelope... I am thinking I'll need to put more on it than what I'm sending since my jigs will be 1/32 oz but not sure how much more?

Of course I haven't even started tying mine yet... just getting my ducks in a row

I've been in other jig swaps. Return postage for me has been (6) first class stamps. That's $2.76 and have never had a problem. You cannot go by your jigs weight. Other tyers may use heavier jig heads. Remember to use postage stamps. Metered postage will not work for return envelopes.
Hope this helps.

Yeah that's what I was thinking that others jigs would be heavier... 6 stamps sounds good to me thank you

You are welcome. Glad I could help.

I just mailed a large envelope (like we use for swaps) with 10 ounces of powder paint & it took 7 stamps. Like Bob9 said, 6 stamps should cover whatever is coming back to you.

Scott, a "bucket" of Pepop's Rosey Red Minner's went out in today's mail!

Looking great guys!! Will be posting pictures as soon as they start coming in so you can see the jigs. Some have said its taking them a while to get their jigs done due to other issues...its fine. You have until Nov 30th to get them to me. As long as you let us know and keep in touch another day or two isn't going to kill anyone. Just keep us informed. Seen to many times people just drop and do not tell anyone.

Another question was how many to send. It will be 18. That is one for everyone, INCLUDING yourself. This isn't a necessity, but my boys are going to help me organize..."teachable moments" lol...so it will be much easier if all the outgoing packages are the same.

Can't wait to spread them all out on the bar and start organizing. The boys are going to love it!! They've never seen this many jigs in one place before!
