2nd. Annual BLF Scratch Made Light Contest is CLOSED - WINNERS results have been posted in the OP!

I suggest RBD that you need to get a good grip on yourself. Did you find the missing tap washer in the bathroom?

I suspect it’s in the bottom of my beer mug. My grip on myself is fine. My grip on reality is slipping.

If I win a prize in the Machine catagory, I want my prize modded by OL too :)

It’s hard to mod a gift certificate.Laughing

Nice to see the work vinh did to the TN35. Epic top three prices in the hand made category this year. And a lot of nice gift certificates for people that are not in the top three. I see I should have stayed where I belong. In the hand made category. Feel free to move my build over to that place. 0:) Im not feeling at home with all the professional lathe jobs im "competing" against. Im like a little league go-cart driver who just entered formula 1. :p

Where are all the missing build threads?

Only one week to go.

as of this post. 3 days 13 hours to finish your builds!

Gonna be close, but i might just make it in time… :slight_smile:

Going to miss the deadline once more. It will be the summer holidays again before I even start the build, but same as last year: I am going to do the build and I will do a build thread :-)

Good luck you all with the last stretch!

3 days, 6 hours, 20 minutes.

It's going to be a miracle, if we even have ten contestants with finished lights, in the hand made category.

Oh well, sh** happens and life tends to get in the way of all things planned.

Some great builds though and a couple almost done, so I hope y'all can get them finished.

The Solar Rechargeable FlashLite is done! Had a great time with the build, and reading all the other builds. The ingenuity shown always amaze me. Hope some of the others are able to follow through at the last minute.

Looks orsm with the clock in the side.

Radio alarm clock?

Stereo?

Naw, Tru-Surround, that’s what my old Toshiba laptop said, ha, ha.

2 days 12 hours!

Finally finished my build - really happy with the outcome.

There’s one more weekend left, & I know there will be a couple of people thrashing to get their builds finished!

Good luck to everyone :beer:

yeah I’m not exactly pleased with the output of mine… but it works and it is handheld :slight_smile:

maybe I’ll build another version using a 100 watt led and stuff, but maybe using wood next time…

PHOTOS of the finished builds, now shown in Post #1.

Good luck to everyone!

Ill race you guys to the finish line.

I hope OL and everyone who is not in a hurry finishing their lights are enjoying the show. :)

Is the counter in OP correct? People can work on their lights on Monday too right?

Same here, i wish good luck to everyone who entered this contest.
All these custom built lights are great creations, though with many differences between each one, they all hold one big thing in common…

  • There are no losers in this fun comp, as they are all great efforts showing the common interest we all share, making everyone a winner in my books. :slight_smile:
