Re: Grinnell or Bust

I think you both deserve to be in the drawing as well. We can have an impartial participant drawing names to eliminate any uncomfortable feeling you may be experiencing. This event doesn't happen this year without your efforts and you deserve to be in the raffle, just like the rest of us!

+1 guys. no reason from any of our perspectives that you can not be in the drawing.

Re: Grinnell or Bust

I'd like to see you guys be in the running. I know it would feel weird pulling you own name from the hat, but maybe someone can figure out how to do this.

Re: Grinnell or Bust

I agree as well. If people that have not even entered a speaker can win, you two sure as hell can too.

What?:eek:

Why?

If everyone's name is in a hat, or box, or barrel, how can there be any possibility of impropriety? I say you both should absolutely be in the drawing(s), you've both worked way too hard to not enjoy some of the perks.

Agree 100%!!!!

Re: Grinnell or Bust

For the record, Bryan and I are both OK with removing ourselves from the door prize pool. We both agreed to that term quite a while ago - before any of the sponsors were even on-board.

So, hoard away - everyone gets a shot!

See you in a few weeks!

More progress. I have veneer on the front's, tops, and bottoms of 3 of 4 boxes, bracing is in and the cherry hardwood trim is close to where I want it so I can start the sides. The big boxes were wrapped with a 74" long piece of veneer made from two pieces taped together and ironed on. Next time I wrap something in veneer I'm going to leave a little more overhang on the edges. 10 3/8" wide veneer doesn't leave much room for error on a 10" wide panel.

Re: Grinnell or Bust

I wasn't advocating prize hoarding, more like acknowledging the fantastic work the guys have done in lining up sponsors and prizes. Cheryle has come to these events before and now it's time to introduce my son to this. He's moderately interested in what we're doing...well, at least when I can break him away from the video games anyway.

Re: Grinnell or Bust

Yeah, but the must be present to win is an issue for my navigator.

You guys who get two's need to share, or let or organizers get some love.

Re: Grinnell or Bust

Fill up your car with peeps, cuz it's looking like there's about two door prizes per person. WTG, JR and Bryan!

Re: Grinnell or Bust

At the DIY in Chicago a few years ago some of the wives picked up some of the top door prizes IIRC. My wife might make the trip this time.

Re: Grinnell or Bust

If Craig K comes, he will travel a bit further, and to be truthful, I am complaining more than I'm bragging because it really is a long drive, one that is made twice in 3 days with a pretty hectic and tiring day in between for the event. It should be an interesting DIY event because it will be the first one my wife has ever gone to (I wouldn't be at all surprised if it's her last one, too!).

My guess is that your wife is every bit as charming as you are! She'll love it and be at all the shows in the future.

Yea,,,, I'm biased,,, but really, what's not to like? Nice people and good music.

As Mwerner would say,,,, HAGD
