My Geocaching Wooden Nickels are Here!

The first time I opened a geocache and saw a wooden nickel I really wanted to have my own made up.  That night when I got home I searched google high and low for wooden nickel printers, geocaching wooden nickels, and any other search string that might help find someone to print wooden nickels of good quality at a great price.  Everything I found just seemed like a lot of money for a piece of wood that I plan on dropping in some rubbermaid container in the woods. (is it really worth it)  I toyed with the idea of making them myself, and I still plan to make some on my own.  The idea went on the back burner for a while and it resurfaced a couple weeks ago when I saw one of these great wooden coins staring up at me inside a cache. I went back on the hunt.

At first I found all the same companies that I found on my last search with some new ones that just didn’t seem to have the quality or look I wanted. So I turned to twitter, geoseaeye said I should check out www.adstuit.com. I checked out Fred’s site and was not sure what I thought, it was hard to tell the quality from the pictures on his site, but the prices are great… (100 for $30, 250 for $50 0r even 1000 for $100) Prices are for double sided with custom graphics.  I emailed Fred and asked about better pictures and he had none to offer.  Still unsure I sat on it for a while… One night I sent Fred my design and asked how he though it would print, he said that it looked like it would come out great and asked if I wanted to see a proof. Well 20 minutes later saw my proof and placed my order and I am glad I did.   Fred was awesome to work with and they got the wooden nickles to my door in under a week!  They came out great!!! Thanks Fred!   If you are in the market for wooden nickels (they are so neat) without a doubt see Fred at Ads-Tuit and tell him Husky Hiker sent you!!!

So here are the nickels
