Popular Post Iguanadon Posted December 9, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Final event of the year was today and the weather was absolutely horrible. Cold rain to start, then the rain ended as expected, but the cold lingered. It was miserable out there but still a decent crowd. In good weather I'd have sold 80-100 puzzles so I was happy selling 43 and it put me at 1,013 for the year. Now I have 3 1/2 months to stockpile for next year with a goal of selling 1700 based on the events I've selected to take part in during 2018. Pictures of today's setup. jollyred, lawson56, Scrolling Steve and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgman Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Hey, are these done on a laser? How many times have you heard that this year? Are you at least going to take a break? I know I would! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL A short break, but I need to do some serious stockpiling. I'll work at a leisurely pace... 5 a day for the next 3 months. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan on giving the Hawk a full, complete run this winter. If I don't like it, someone will be able to buy it for a bargain price when I list it for sale on Craigslist. tomsteve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Ah, thanks for the reminder, I had meant to let everyone know that due to the rain in the morning, I needed the table I was going to use for the contest, so I didn't do it. I have everything set aside though to try it at one of my early events next year. kmmcrafts and jbrowning 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
