As of today, we have 6 of 13 enterants with build threads started, and room for more to participate. For those that still want to join in, let me know and start building. It's not too late
Had a $475 expense come up this month...plan B fell through...and I still need to get my mono together for the racing season.

Not dropping out, but if I get a start on this...it will be a late start...

Well I will start my build tomorrow morning. I will take pics of the kit I have so all can see my starting point. I do have an engine and pipe but nothing else, so over the next 4 months i will be acquiring everything need to build the rigger. I also will remake a .12 rigger from plans.

Paul

p.s. pics to start tomorrow


Happy New Year All !!!!!!!!!

Well .21 rigger build was a failure, didn't finish in time. The .12 rigger build is complete.

don't feel bad Cheese, mine didn't make it either. Between job changing, wife required road trips and the infamous "honey do list", I didn't even get close.

For those of you that did finish your builds, I think it's time to start the judging. If the moderators would like to set up some sort of voting thread, votes to be hidden of course, we can let the buildin thrashing begin

Well I dont think I missed the voting, I dont think voting ever happened? Could all the builders that did finish a build please attach a link to this thread and we can make our own Voting poll thread.


Thank You,

Paul

Now my build was part of another thread but I did build during the build challenge and did say I was going to be building this boat also. Here is a link for my build : http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_6978004/tm.htm . Now since nobody is finishing this challenge as far as the judging goes when atleast the last few people chime in with there links we can make a thread for judging and voting for the best build/boat......................... atleast for bragging rights

Well, Ol' JD can build model boats but is "Technically Challenged" trying to figure out how to attach a link to this thread. But, I have figured out how to upload images. All the finished projects look great and IMO all are winners.
