Title: ARGUS Winner announced
Post by: RC Storick on October 15, 2006, 06:53:29 PM: 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.
j1 So with out further ado the winner is! j1

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

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 <><

Post by: tom hampshire on October 16, 2006, 05:40:16 PM: 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

Post by: RC Storick on October 16, 2006, 05:47:14 PM: Directly for me means next Monday. I only ship on Mondays. My day off.

Post by: tom hampshire 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

Title: Re: ARGUS Winner announced
Post by: Bill Sawyer 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.
