Hey Dave are going to start a single thread for completed projects again?

I took advantage of today’s sunshine to take my final pictures with an actual camera not my phone. Now I have to get them uploaded. Ready for the final completed project thread.

Well I am amazed at the number of builds that are already finished and there is still 28+ hours to go. Maybe this was too easy or I gave you too many days to get it done. Pondering for next year…

Tuesday I will start a new Stickey Thread, for posting the finished builds photos. Until then… Start something anew.

16 HOURS

TO GO!

Don’t even THINK about it Dave!

6 hours

and it will be all over!

As a first timer to the Challenge, let me say it was a load of fun. I look forward to participating in the future.

Chris, you’ve been a great addition to the Challenge fellowship this year.

Same here Chris, had a blast doing this, and got a scratch built building to show for it. It was a blast

Re Judging thread, hey guys, just a reminder, add a link to your build threads in your judging posts.

According to Dave’s original schedule voting should have started today, guess it can skip till Monday

OOoooooppppppsss, for some reason I had it in my mind that the voting was to start on Monday, a week after the end of the build…

Sorry guys.

Oh yeah? I think you were MIA sipping margaritas on that island you went to last year, the one with all the sharks.

WOW!

The builds are amazing this year!!!

Thank you Mr. Taylor for keeping what seems to have become a tradition here on LSC going. The amount of work you put into this is understood and totally respected!

I agree with Rooster on this one. Thanks Dave. This is a fun adventure and without your hard work it would likely fall away. We appreciate it.

That was about the time that the string on my string/can dsl broke and I went offline…

Only took a week, but I’m now wireless!

It was also about the time I set the bridge on the layout only to see it tumble and explode!.. oh crap, 'cept no crapping! My septic backed up and my time went to clearing a path for the pumper …

Great news my tank is in good condition. hey that was my bright spot!

I re-cut several rocks that broke in the ‘splosion… and went back to good ol’ gel super glue on the build.

So I am firmly in the did not finish category, although I have started the other side, it will have to wait until I negotiate more quarry stones …

I’m having a problem with the voting, they all are winners!

Oh well, I’ll try.

It will be how many days until the 2018 challenge?

Now that I am done getting “educated” as a Master Gardener I need to get the layout and workbench cleaned up!

That may take a few months!

I think the last one wore Dave out. Haven’t seen him since.

How long? Not long enough, I have way too many projects stalled right now.

How long? Too long, I need sum in-sper-ay-shun.

Well David you are the King!

Thank ya, thank ya very much.
