Closed: The 4th Annual BLF / Old Lumens Scratch Made Light Contest - Winners announced!

again there is not enough time right now but at the end of september “фењерче” will be on the machine (“сијалица” will have to wait for next year) stay tuned…

Your build last year was amazing, so I am looking forwards to you joining in.

Another question regarding the contest. Somehow always the same people reply to the build threads. Those people also happen to be the contestants :smiley: Does the rest of the forum actually know that there is a contest? Maybe if there’d be another sticky in the modding area that would motivate some more people to join in. And the more people there are making lights the more fun it is, isn’t it? :beer:

Pretty sure most know about it given how often all the threads spend time at the beginning of the recent posts list there’s just always been a huge disparity between the number of people reading a thread and posting in it(read count listed at the bittom of the op in each thread). It does surprise me how few of the forum regulars respond to updates though. The contests thread itself I believe gets stickied already in its subforum.

I’ve hinted about doing a build, but never committed to making a thread…

As much as I’d love to be in the mix, this time around Real Life™ is taking precedence. Nothing bad is happening, quite the opposite actually.

I know there’s a bit of time left yet, & I have a pile of parts & even an idea(!), but I can’t see it getting done.

I’m watching all the builds when I get chance - there’s some great stuff going on this year :beer:

:+1:

Sometimes real life gets in the way. :stuck_out_tongue:

i know it is late, but i just realized it is time for the contest, just logged in first time in month or so, would it be ok to join this late?

It wouldn’t be only ok, but great! :slight_smile: Looking forward to seeing your build.

Another woody? :smiley:

i hope not, i want to build something different. but if i’m out of ideas 2 week before the end, i’ll have no choice but to build another one.

My light is now officially finished. Well it is if the wood doesn’t all fall off before the build time is up. :person_facepalming:

wow. this is an awesome light,

I am also done.1/10/16

thanks all thread here

There are some fine works of art in this comp this year. :sunglasses:

T, t, t, t, tick, tick, tick, tick. I’m channeling Styx. Only two week ends left and I’m back to working full time. The good news is work is good therapy for the wrist but I’ll have to figure out what I can bring with me on the road if I’m going to be able to finish. It’s times like this I wish were rich and retired.

There are lots of times I wish I was rich and retired. I’m half retired and maybe half rich…. or is it half poor……… :person_facepalming:

Tick, tock, tick, tock… The clock is ticking! One week left!
