Oh ho ho, don’t think us 3D Modelers don’t have skills. I grew up on a family farm. I was making bird houses as soon as I could lift a hammer. Plywood Christmas tree decorations as soon as I could lift a jig saw. My Dad and I had an epic shop. We built metal weldaments constantly, and I did a lot of various builds myself too. My dad bought a junk riding mower once just so I could have fun tearing it and the engine apart to the last bolt. My knowledge of everything mechanical was so well known, an local mechanic with epic skills himself offered me a job as his first employee just based on what he heard. I took that job and worked there for years until I started college. I did an incredible job finding and fixing hard problems fast on both cars, trucks, and tractors. During college I took a 3D Modelling class. After college I moved away from home and no longer had a shop that lived up to my expectations. But discovered 3D Modeling was even more fun and useful. I sent a lot of metal working jobs to local shops that I modeled. I discovered CAD was a better fit for my work/family/life. Plus I just don’t have room to built a massive shop to meet my expectations. So I spent $4254 on a Solidworks license and built a $1200 PC to run it. I really know how to have fun. Life is good.
yea, that is kinda expensive,
my 123design soft is absolutely free to download from their site, and i run it on 300 dollar laptop. thou it did slow down a lot, to almost freezing when i did the pattern.
i honestly do not know who did prizes, i did what i had to do on my end, but never got any response from hke, i never followed up, not that i needed that light, or even really wanted it, but i formed my opinion of the company and never ordered from them.
I hope it might be an Emisar or a copper flashlight. Guesses are the Emisar D18, Noctigon K1 or the Acebeam copper flashlight because they have a similar price and I like them.
Something not on his site? That would be an even bigger surprise. :sunglasses:
Acebeam and Wuben are located in Shenzhen too and they are already operating (almost) normally - and have been answering emails even during their lockdown.
Moving on from that…

I received a prize for the Old Lumens Flashlight Challenge, a Manker U21 1560 Lumen Pocket Thrower CREE XHP35 HI LED Flashlight.
This years competition was very competitive and everyone gave it their best. I want to Thank all our Sponsors for participating and we hope to see you again. Also want to Thank all those who supervised and judged this years event. This was a Honor for me to participate with you guys. After watching on the sideline my first year here and observing the great interaction between everyone, hooked me to give it a shot.
It has been fun, Thank You All
