Last day to sign up for the winter PITH

Given that it appears only 9 have signed up (8 for #3 and 1 for #2), you may want to consider extending the sign up deadline.

Your PITH, so obviously your call.

 

[KMCloonan]

I'm in no hurry. We can wait and get some more folks signed up.

How long would you recommend I extend it?

 

[d_bondi]

Perhaps extend to mid-week and see if you get anymore interest.

What if I leave it open till 02-16? (that gives three weeks till the ship date) as Kevin said I'm in no hurry. I can post the swap list on the 17th.

In all likelihood, when the title is revealed, it will be a forehead smacking moment. However, after some cogitation on this acronym, the best(?) i can come up with is Plasma Interplanetary (Interstellar) Transport Hologram...OR...an event focused on preparing small lab animals for dissection.

Please clarify.

Thanks.

I'm not in a big hurry either. It's way to cold to be in my shop right now anyway lol.

If you extend it keep posting regularly with a link to the sign up post to keep visibility up. That might help draw in a few more that may be on the fence. As I have found with the group PITH's that I have organized, participation is hit or miss. This one appeals to a smaller audience so you may not get many more but it certainly is worth a try.

A PITH stands for Pen In The Hat
It is a random draw pen exchange.

Here is a link to the rules and sign up.

I wonder if you could get one of the admins to pin the registration post in the General Announcements section?
