Hi Mieciu. Yes your build qualifies for the 'Modified Category'. You'll need to make a thread for it and show as much as you can how you built it. It looks very interesting and I'm looking forward to seeing more

I do think this is a good idea. I said something similar in this thread . However it was also pointed out to me that if the persons already interested in the comp decided to team up in pairs then it’s possible to get even less entries than we currently get. It also begs the question (if we introduce this new category) why have the limit of only one entry per person? Personally i think anything that can entice more overall people to get involved can only be a good thing. However it has also previously been mentioned to me that some people are wary (or possibly even embarrassed) to enter if they know the other participants are ‘too good’.
It’s a fine line to try and open up the restrictions whilst still keeping the home hack interested in having a go… Anyone who has an opinion one way or the other I would like to hear it
Started new thread - will upload more pictures/movies later
EDIT:
I also have 1 underwater project - made from scratch without using any of existing flashlight parts.
Can I submit new thread in ‘Machine Made’? category
EDIT#2 - I’ve just red about only one single build limit in this contest….
I am in for machine build . Parts are ordered. Now to remember how to start a thread .
I will join. Hand made. trying to create a theme.
Great! Looking forward to it
OP has been updated with an end date. 5th of January seemed like a good fit.
Great! Your thread was added to the list

I would like to say i’m keeping on top of things and encouraging all the contestants but i’ve been a little busy with work lately. Aside from fathers day last week i haven’t even had any time to work on my own stuff.
But the good news is there’s still plenty of time to enter So if you’re thinking about it… make the commitment. Everyone will appreciate what you bring to the table
Here is my entry topic for the OL contest, modified flashlight category: Skylight's 8th BLF OL contest entry, modified flashlight [DDH ML778SL FINISHED]
I’m still doing some brainstorming and experiments to see which host and parts I will use.
That's the spirit :)
I have a project in mind, but I am not sure if it will be feasible to make it in time (personal time and shipping time). In case I enter, it will be to handmade category. But, again, it is something I will be able to tell in some weeks .
Meanwhile, good luck to all contestants
Despite having all the parts for my build (as well as for at least 9 other mods that I can think of), I don’t think I’ll be making any progress until like December at this rate. But, I am still hopeful I’ll be able to finish!
Yeah , I got my parts , but I keep changing my mind what I want to attempt. I’m glad we have till January.
Ouch.
MtnDon and YuvalS have finished their builds. Well done guys
I hope everyone has their parts ordered.
Well, my possiblity to enter this year’s contest is slowly fading.
One important thing for me would be to have appropriate drivers and unfortunatelly I’ve not been able to order it/them (as I would chose the modding project meanwhile…).
So, maybe I won’t be in after all. Let’s see how next weeks go…
Congrats to the ones that have it finished yet and good luck for the still ongoing projects
Well, to here they normally take almost a month, but I am not ordering from China.
I would order from our member Lexel but maybe due to his recent conditions or being busy he’s been absent for a while.
So I’ll have to wait for a reply.
