Kurtz Dossier from Apocalypse Now (open source for all!)

I decided to order the Ivory files so I could see which Military Jacket file would work best. These seem to be only available in New Zealand and they don't ship out of the country.

 
So for these Ivory folders, I have found three places, all in New Zealand. That's it. I have emailed all three asking about shipping, but I think it will be no. We need a RPF member in New Zealand. I could have it shipped to them, and then I will be happy to pay for shipping to have them then ship it to us.

My military files arrived, but they are wrong. They are the correct color, but they have the tab sticking up, and other things are wrong. They did not match this picture:

They are this. They are actually the correct color, but wrong style. Adam's Military jacket folders look very similar to the Ivory folders. I want my Military jackets to be a bit darker.

So I bought the ones you were going to Ehyder20. They will be here Thursday and I will see if they will work, or if I need to cut down the wrong tabbed ones I have now and return the others.

The Red files arrived. They are not the same as the film or Adam's. They are very matte, they have the inner folder built in. I actually think it will work for the 'Top Secret" file, as this would be different that the standard military jacket.

I have ten. I need two and I am sending two to Ehyder20 if he wants them so I have six left to send out.

The time magazine arrived. I was worried the thin, double side print paper I got was too thick, but it feels very similar so I think it will work for the Magazine cover and inserts. I can send out some of this as well.

That's a shame with the folders, Don't know what is so hard about selling what you have listed! I really like the red folders. They give the right vibe. As for printing the new cover I found this image. really couldn't ask for a better image though its resolution may be a bit low. Envelopes arrive today so I will get those figured out.

Great find, but for that I need the double spread paper, which I have not found yet.
 
So one of the stores can ship the Ivory folders to me from New Zealand. $177 for 100 folders.

Ouch!!

May need to wait.
 
As soon as I can I will just order the correct ones and maybe member who want them can pay me like $10 for a set for their files.

I will send you ones for free since you have done so much here.

I am happy to share extras for free, but for these and the big envelopes I will need some help, so maybe I can put a package of the four Ivory Files, one of each of the big envelopes and what not for $10 or so. Member could get the harder to get stuff cheap and I could get some of my money back?????
 
Okay lots of problems.

Just before I spent a lot on these I checked measurements.

8.3 x 11.7 inches. Too small. Smaller than standard folder.

These coming tomorrow won't fit in the above:

So maybe your idea is best. We can use these to cut down and print. Mod the top of both.

And these I wanted to use as Military Jacket instead use for Ivory files. However the corners of each will need to be modded.

On this one you made did you mod the corners?

Also I tried to print on a cut down folder and my printer said "no." Actually, it said "Hell no"!

So I will need you to print them. I can send a large batch to you for cut down and printing if that would work?????

Yeah that’s no problem! Here is what I did with the folders and what I would be doing with the ones you are getting. The folder on the left is the outer ivory folder, and then a secondary folder is trimmed as seen in the right and printed on. This will be the military jacket.

I think your Military folders may be closer in color than mine. If you have enough, I think I will return these as they were the wrong ones sent anyway.

Yeah that is no problem, I have around 100 of them so these will work. So just to clarify these folders in the photo below will be the outer folder and the ones I print will be the inner?
