i think it was supposed to go to locknut next then to M3 to get it to wonderfest. but with time running out on this i don't know. it would be more up to locknut, since he would be the one getting cut. but if he doesn't mind and mf can get it to you i'd say go for it. i'd really love to see pics of it there! i really wish i could make it myself, but it's not in the cards. :cry:

one weird question who gets to keep her when she's done?? i've got some shelf space if no one else wants her

I'm terribly sorry about the long wait. I've been basically broke for the last three weeks and couldn't afford to ship anything. :( Luckily the paycheck I got last Friday finally managed to put me in the black and now I can afford to ship it off. Who should I ship it to?

as much as i would like to work on her i think it might be best to send it to M3 as he is taking it to WF.
he was supposed to be the one to finish anyway so it works out..

Wellll, unfortunately because of some work commitments, it's looking like I won't be going to WF this year. However, I should be able to do a hand-off to friends heading through on the way, so I got that going for me.

So, I leave you two choices:

1. Get it done ASAP, and get it to me so I can get it to WF (while bypassing a coupe people);

or

2. We give everybody a shot, bypass WF 2015, and get it entered in WF 2016 (which I will be attending, come hell or high water). Heck, we could even go another round!

Thoughts?

I say, "2016 or bust!"

Let's send it for a month-ish to the next couple of folks, then send it back to me and I'll finish it up and get it to Wonderfest 2016.

I did leave it open for lighting. I was planning on putting it in myself before life got in the way.

What are your plans with it, K?

I know we're not supposed to get upset about some one removing what you did but, it looks like you ripped off everything that everyone else has added and are starting from scratch. I just don't know how I feel about that. Kind of conflicted. Don't know what the others think about this. Just saying.

btw kalen, got on a better computer and it's looking good. that other monitor just blurred alot of the details together so it looked like a lot more was removed. man i feel like an *ss now. sorry
