3. Your entry/prior build attempt may have been part of another prior Group Build which has since concluded or it may simply have been something you were working on in the past (see Rule #2) but concurrently running Group Builds are not elligible;
4. Your entry/prior build attempt must not yet be complete as of today;
5. Your entry/prior build attempt must be something that has personally challenged you to the point of quitting the project and/or demonstrated procrastination of epic proportions;

8. To be elligible for the final vote, entries must be considered 100% complete by their builder and photographs of same must be posted by midnight (at the entrant's local time), July 31, 2007;
9. Winner shall be determined by a poll/vote open exclusively to people who were already members of this Website prior to today;
10. Winner shall receive a Dremel mototool such as that pictured below (or an equivalent, subject to availability)....will a 110/120V unit work anywhere on this little planet?

I like Rule 5     Rules out my Black Prince and VC-10 tho  

A380 and Mirage 4000 it is!


BTW, I already have a Dremel (never used in 6 years).  Is their an alternate prize for me when I win?

Cocky son of a gun, no?  You mean to tell me that you don't use your dremel?

I tried using the sanding thing once, and it sanded so fast it gouged a big dip in the plastic.  And thats it.  Thankfully, it came free with a drill, so I didn't waste any money on it.

Remember, I'm just a bog-standard kit assembler, sadly lacking the creativity, imagination and talent of the likes of you and Baz.  There's a reason why you're a proffessional artist and I'm a lab tech!

You know....there could always be an, um, extension of the deadline....    

[anthonyp]
