Pretty sure most know about it given how often all the threads spend time at the beginning of the recent posts list thereās 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.
Iāve hinted about doing a build, but never committed to making a threadā¦
As much as Iād love to be in the mix, this time around Real Lifeā¢ is taking precedence. Nothing bad is happening, quite the opposite actually.
I know thereās a bit of time left yet, & I have a pile of parts & even an idea(!), but I canāt see it getting done.
Iām watching all the builds when I get chance - thereās some great stuff going on this year 
Sometimes real life gets in the way. 
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 wouldnāt be only ok, but great! 
Looking forward to seeing your build.
Another woody? 
i hope not, i want to build something different. but if iām out of ideas 2 week before the end, iāll have no choice but to build another one.
My light is now officially finished. Well it is if the wood doesnāt 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. Iām channeling Styx. Only two week ends left and Iām back to working full time. The good news is work is good therapy for the wrist but Iāll have to figure out what I can bring with me on the road if Iām going to be able to finish. Itās times like this I wish were rich and retired.
There are lots of times I wish I was rich and retired. Iām half retired and maybe half richā¦. or is it half poorā¦ā¦ā¦ :person_facepalming:
Tick, tock, tick, tockā¦ The clock is ticking! One week left!
