Hi everyone, just wanted to keep yall up to date. I got a message from Capcrnch that the package was returned to him so it hasn't gotten to Canada as of yet. He has already reshipped so hopefully it'll reach its destination soon!

Thanks for the offer James. I might need to take you up on it.

UPDATE!!! Well...it never made it to Canada, or if it did it hasn't reached Wayne. He has sent me a box of goodies which I recieved today. So I'll be adding his blanks with my own and sending a new box out tomorrow for Utah. With the blanks Wayne has sent me there are enough for each person to take 1 of each type. There's a shroud of mystery as to what one of them is but all I can say is it's a surprise. Like I said there's enough for each person to take 1 of each so everyone please do so so we have enough to go around. I'll post the tracking number of the package once it's sent out and I ask for EVERYONE left to do the same. This one will stay in the US until it reaches me and then I'll be sending half the blanks I get in the end to Wayne since he missed out on the last boxes goodies. Here are the remaining names in order that the box will be going to:

Thanks for the offer Mike, but right now I have a full roster and we are about half way through. My plan is to start a new sign up once this one is finished so keep an eye out for that one. I hope to have more people sign up for the next one.

Guys, I have a box that was sent to me, sent to Canada, but returned to me because I filled out the customs slip wrong. (grrr)
I've been in the hospital and just got back home.. I was going through some stuff and found the box, realized I didn't get to resend it and it's still here!
Sorry to all for dropping the ball!
Brooksy, looks like you picked up the ball when I disappeared. Let me know who/where to send this box to and i'll get it out!

Thanks Rich for filling everyone in. I'm glad your doing well though! I think everyone can understand that life and health take priority and you got back with us as soon as you could and I appreciate that.
Ok, I've been milling this over throughout today to figure out how best to handle this. Here's my idea and I'd like to get everyone's opinion bc I do want this to be as fair as possible but at the same time simple.
My idea is for Rich to send the box to me. When I thought the box to be lost I got together with 1080Wayne and he offered to help get things started back up by sending me blanks. To try and ensure that the box wouldn't be lost in customs or anything of the sort, which would leave everyone left shafted, I then sent the new box to Utah and it's been going ever since with now 3 people left to recieve it. My ultimate plan was after Fred (ptownsubbie) gets it he would send it to me and then I would send the majority of the blanks to Wayne for his help starting things off again (remember he hasn't recieved ANY blanks from either box). Now that the 1st box has been recovered it leaves a dilema. Best I can figure is that there aren't many of my own blanks left in the 1st box and hopefully there won't be any left in the 2nd once it gets to me. I'm already putting a package together for wayne (not related to this at all) and what would happen (if no one objects) is I'll keep a selection of blanks from both boxes and send the remainder to Wayne along with the other items I'm sending him to save me double shipping to Canada. I think this way everyone gets some of each others blanks. It's too bad that it had to be split up about halfway but this was the best I could come up with.
So if there are any objections please feel free to say so. I would like for everyone to agree so there's not a sour taste in anyone's mouth so to speak. I'm open for any other suggestions as well. I figured the way I have it would be the cheapest shipping wise, but I could be wrong. Sorry for such a long post but I wanted to get everything out in the open and try to be clear as possible. Thanks everyone!

Awesome!
Just to give a heads up. I'm traveling heavily this week as well as next week for work. There is a very real possibility I won't be in town when the box arrives as well as there may be a delay before I get it back out to the next person.
Please be patient with me and I promise to keep everyone updated as soon as I have the box in hand.
Thanks,
Brian

Is the pass along already full?
As you know I am just starting to color cast but I am getting the hang of clear casting and think the coloring will come along a little faster since I am over some of my learning curve??? I hope ???
Can I get in on the tail end of the mail list to have time to make some blanks?
It sounds like FUN!
PS
Thanks for the PM advice!

Its looking that way. I know Brian had work obligations that could be taking longer than expected. He hasn't been on since 3/9. I haven't gotten the original box yet either. Rich hasn't been on since 3/18 and I fear he may be ill again. Hopefully something will happen soon.

He still hasn't signed on since 3/9. I do hope its a work related issue and nothing serious.

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE
Well I got a surprise in the mail today. I now have the original box that never made it up to Canada. There wasn't a note or anything as to an explination of what happened, but it's here now. Sadly though, there were only blanks from 3 members in there, myself being 1 of them. Here's the list of who's left to recieve the box:
Truckfixr
Pioneerpens
Ptownsubbie
Brooks803
1080Wayne
I'll be PM'ing each person to ensure they still want to participate and that they are able to do so. I've uploaded a pic of all I got in the box so everyone can see. If the second box (still in TX) ever surfaces we can figure out what to do with it as well.

I'll post the tracking number sometime tomorrow afternoon. The first pic is what was in the box when I received it. The 2nd pic is what I'm sending on.
