Should I Print it?
🕑 Added 2023-08-05 14:15:33 +0000 UTC2nd of 8 Posts in August: The super secret project is getting momentum. Everyone on the team is doing their thing. Stuff is built. Annoying logistics holding up the next part but should be ironed out next week. By the end of this month I should be soft launching it with just my patrons :). Below is the stuff I can share!
BOLTING BIBLE: Attached is NOT the cover, and this is a very rough draft to see if this would make sense to print the Bolting Bible. I'm exploring what it will take to officially print it. The blog version and the PDF version will always be free but what if it is in print? I've personally purchased more books that were already free online than any other books. Erik Sloan was kind enough to share the contact of who helped design his big wall topo book that looks so nice and they whipped up these samples for us. After releasing the remainder of the bolting videos I've got in the queue, perfecting each chapter, having a bunch of experts look over it, and getting permission or original photos, it might be worth printing. It costs $5,000ish to design and $10k-$20k to print depending on quantity but I could pre-sell to get most of that covered so it's not eating cash flow otherwise spent on episodes.
