Raffle for Paragonbuilder's friend whose wife has breast cancer

[malk315]

Sorry for the early footage of the floor but I had to "sneak" the video at first since this was total surprise. Fantastic feeling actually being there fellas!

We're counting out tickets right now and the raffle will be starting soon. Once each batch is allocated we just need to tear them all into individual tickets and then I'll get some footage of Dan picking out the numbers and making up the list!

We'll pull at least 30 or 40 numbers and if we get duplicates we will put them aside so we end up with a list of winners 1-40 that are unique. This way if folks want to skip we have enough picked folks to fall back on for the 17 prizes.

Then we will start the process of letting people pick their prize in order and we'll use the forum.

If you are on BOTH OPE and AS look here for updates. When someone who is only on AS comes up to their turn to pick a prize, I'll go over to AS to solicit them to pick their prize.

Be back soon!

I'm a bit of the feeling type too..made my eyes well up just a bit. Thanks for the video!!

That video was great but I wish I could be a fly on the wall when Chris gets home and sits his wife down to explain to her what a bunch of people they don't even know raised a bunch of money to help ease their burden. I think that would bring a tear to most anyone's eyes.

 

[JonCraig]

Sorry--didn't mean to imply that it wouldn't. I'm just more of the smile & say, "that's *f-wording cool" type.

 

[stihl livin]

Jon, I'm similar to you but when I watched the video of Jeremy miller opening his 661 when the raffle was done for him it did make my eyes tear up. However this video had me smiling ear to ear. I think it's just because Jeremy is kind of a crier.

Awesome video! Well done to everyone involved!

I'll also think it's cool when that 576 arrives in Nashvegas. Just sayin'

The suspense is killin me!

 

[Moparmyway]

Truthfully,
If I get picked first ............ its a very hard decision.

Tree Monkey port job or saw ???

 

[JonCraig]

Yeah... I don't know which would be cooler... a new saw or getting Tree Monkey or MM to port my 064...

 

[CapitaineHaddoc]

Not really interested by the saws, they are great, but I won't use them. For cons, a free port job...

 

[JonCraig]

Forgive my ignorance... compare and contrast a "port job" (a la tree monkey) with a "woods port"?

Those tickets aren't perforated?

No difference, except Scott is a well know builder, and his saws have a great reputation, but there's a lot of other good builders on this site.

If I win, I'm sending my toro 2stroke snowblower to Scott. Nothing against Randy but I bet Scott has delt with more snowblowers, that and I think Randy would appreciate me not sending it to him. Lol

Check out the saw video thread, and find a few Treemonkey ported saws..that may answer your question.

Would that be a "snow" port job?

 

[JonCraig]

It's definitely not a snow jo--nevermind
