I know everyone is on pins a needles to see who won. It took 4 draws this time to get a winner so that three better than last time. Two with no posts and one with no name. I was going to say who they were but I think I let it stew.

Best advice for future drawings is have you full name in your profile and make yourself active.

So with out further ado the winner is!

Tom Hampshire Yeah that's my real name. Keith is just a stage name.

Congratulations Tom.

Congratulations, Tom!

Hey guys, it only took four draws this time to get a "qualified" winner.

Bill - My apologies, pulled a tendon in my right ankle and can't make Charlotte... BUT, I'd like to donate the kit to the flyer most deserving in your eyes, maybe something along the lines of a junior or newcomer who suffers the worst crash. So let me know, its your choice, and I'll either ship it to the real winner, or if Bob Storick sees this he can drop ship it direct. Please give my best to the Carolina gang. Hope to make it next time. Tom H

Truly a genuine and admirable idea. How a a vote from every one? Would that work?

Bob - Bill Little is the man to see... I have complete trust in his judgment. Tom H

Hi Tom,

I truly hate to hear of your injury! (but I'll trade you twp ruptured ligaments in my knee for your one pulled tendon! HAHAHA) Get well soon!

Thanks for the trust, I will let you know after this weekend's meet. It is our 25th Anniversary Contest, and there should be an even bigger turn out! I don't know if 4 circles will be enough........

Thanks,
Bill <><

Bill - Why not have Bob ship the kit to you direct, or have Bill Sawyer deliver it to you at the contest? If Bob or Bill Sawyer can do this we might avoid a damage claim. If not, please post the shipping address here so it be sent out promptly. Tom H

RC Storick · « **Reply #12 on:** October 16, 2006, 05:47:14 PM »

Directly for me means next Monday. I only ship on Mondays. My day off.

tom hampshire · « **Reply #13 on:** October 16, 2006, 05:59:18 PM »

Bob - So the action plan seems to be that Bill will post the winners address here Sunday evening, ship Monday? BTW..........THANK YOU for an excellent job in running this forum. Tom H

Well, Tom I guess I will quit sulking because I didn't win. You are a truly generous and thoughtful person. Take care of that injury.

Congrats to the winner. I'm glad I didn't win..unless there is a 1/2 a version....

who makes the Argus kit?

Bill Sawyer · « **Reply #18 on:** October 22, 2006, 08:20:54 AM »

I released the first laser cutting of the Argus in 2003 and have made it available since then. I recently made another cutting and hope to keep it available for some time.
