Thought I'd "bump" this back to the top and see how things are progressing on the raffle.

People who are contributing the major prizes, please shoot me an email. Joe, Gabi & Paul, we're good.

The general 18watt membership can't see this just yet, but there's a module set up specifically for the raffle. Each prize has a page, with room for a description, links, a photo or two, etc.

We have a gallery set up for more extensive photos, and for recording this for historical purposes. Each of the builders/contributors will be able to post photos and captions. If you don't want to mess with the Gallery interface, you can always send them to me or one of the other admins as well.

We'll be opening up the gallery to public access during the raffle, unless there are any concerns. Let me know.

Thanks,
-B

We're doing the groundwork behind the scenes right now but I expect we'll make some publlic announcements here very soon.

In the meanwhile, make sure you have donated money to the Mark Durham Memorial Fund by clicking the paypal icon on the main page. Each $10 donation gets one ticket to the raffle.

Thanks,

PROGRESS!!!

Paul Ruby has finished his build. I know this because it showed up on my doorstep yesterday

Anyone want to donate a head cab to house it?

Had some time last night and unboxed Paul Ruby's EF86/Trem build to check it out....WOW is an understatement. This thing is a work of art. My dig-cam is on loan to a friend, but should have it back tonight. I'll snap some photos and post them soon.

Hi Ken,

We will be launching the raffle donations pages on Labor day, or the day after. I just received notice of this from Bender. He has been extra busy trying to secure employment, hence the delay.

Once the donations pages are active, you can submit your donation via the "Care Package" page, and you'll be sent an email of where to ship the tubes.

We'll post a sticky with reference to this.

Later,
Darin

As I've now been delving into more and more of this forum. I've noticed the Mark Durham raffle. It's very noble what everyone is doing, and Mark's life will obviously live on thru everyone that visits and uses this site. I have very little money and for me to do anything music related, I sell gear I've accumulated over the years. Iwas going to buy a kit by selling off gear that I mentioned in another thread, even though I had already bought this turret board, but I think now I'd rather build with the parts I have on hand, and give the $100.00 your asking for tickets. I'm just going to give the money though. So I guess I better get started with pics.
Thank you again for this forum, My thoughts and prayers go out to Mr. Durham's family.
Jac

The JTM45 arrived yesterday, and it looks really nice!!!

I should have it all put together soon. I'll try to get some photos of this and Paul Ruby's build tonight....if I can sneak away from remodeling work for a few minutes.
