Website News and Messages
Posted June 21st 2011 I can still do all the design work for the entire range of products. I can supply you with artwork you can copy, provide
explanatory pdfs and documentation that you can use for paper leaflets and packaging. I can't make the actual physical products any more
because arthritis in my fingers is too far advanced these days. But I still get a lot of enquiries from visitors who want
something made, so we could set up a co-operative service
and supply them from this website .
Visit this new mini-site if you're interested.
Posted May 8th 2010 My thanks to all contributors in the past for making the early years full of lively discussion. However, over the last 2 years of the Forum's existence the volume of postings had dried to a trickle and it was no longer cost effective to keep on paying the hosting fees, nor sensible to keep the volunteer moderators looking out for new messages that happened so infrequently. There are still over 300 threads and a total of more than 1700 posts available to view for the meantime, but the pages are now hosted by the Bravenet free service which inevitably carries a lot of advertising in banners and popups etc. No new posts are being accepted and the forum will I suppose eventually get deleted. If there is anyone out there who would like to take over the name "The Runes Forum" it is for sale. Or indeed, if anyone would like to take over the forum as it stands and re-open it a transfer of ownership can be arranged. The hosting fee was something like 50 bucks a year the last time I checked. Contact me for more information.
Posted February 15th 2010 This has been a very difficult decision for me, but one that I should have made years ago, I have simply been putting it off for too long. The fact is I have been in poor health for some time and with arthritis in my fingers steadily getting worse it is now close to impossible to make these products. Long absences from the workshop and interruptions to my work have soaked up too much of my available time and I therefore decided not to take on any new orders for hard products. People have been telling me for years I was killing myself with work and I laughed. But maybe now I am starting to believe them.
When you visit the rune wares pages where all the products were featured you
will now see a series of "retrospectives" for those who are interested in
the range of products that were available in the past. These pages might help
when some of my products show up for resale on eBay and other
similar auction websites.

Posted November 11th 2007 I ran the Runezine project from 2001 until it was finally closed down at the end of August 2007. Runezine subscribers were contacted and asked if they wanted to subscribe to a new list. If you missed out on that but would like to receive very occasional email news messages from Runemaker Group, please click this link to subscribe. My sincere thanks to all Runezine readers for their support in the past, I hope everyone found it interesting and occasionally useful.
