Hey, glad to see the contest running this year again
Thanks Hoop for taking the lead and to the organizers in the previous years for keeping it alive as well!
I will still decide on entering or not, but if I do, it will probably be with something modded
Meanwhile, good luck to all the contestants and good work too
I am still not exactly sure of my entry this year, I have a general concept idea. As in previous years, it will fit into the Hand-Made category and will make use of some Wooden components. Nothing new for me there.
My topic is located here, but there is nothing I have not already said there.
Here is my only memory of Old Lumens…Hopefully we will meet some day…

Many has come and go…Sometime when I slow down to reminisce it makes my heart a bit heavy.
Marshalls of goinggear used to send me gift lights with my name laser engraved…
I have a hard time building a collection of my own because $$$ always gets in the way….Yet I have never sold a single light gifted to me. They are all the most special…
Old Lumens was a wonderful man that I respected from the early days. I am glad there is this tradition in practice annually to honor him.
Making a drop-in is an acceptable entry for the Modified Light category. To enter the Machine Made category, the entire light housing and drop-in would need to be made by you.
