I vote raffle. If you sold 100 tickets (which would be easy) at 5 bux a pop they would probably all go tomorrow. If auction, bidders would drop off rapidly when it gets over $150 or so.
Just my 2 cents...

You are right Dave. Probably best bang for the buck. I think we should do it at both events, tomorrow and next Saturday and pick it at the too cold to fish nite so both groups will get a chance to throw away some cash. There will be quite a few people who will not attend tomorrow but will next Sat. |

I was just using a random # with the 100. 200 is very doable. Just have a set drawing date (not too far away to keep the anticipation level up) and let tickets fly. |

Raffle sounds good. We'll hammer out the details this week. Again - thank you Paul - that "Spare Time" (maybe that should have been engraved) is  |

Talking to the boss at end of show I think it was up to 300 bucks in raffle tickets so far. Good job guys. Still have the too cold to fish nite too and I bet if you ask John he would find a way to let you get in by a PM if you can't make the too cold to fish nite which is where the winner will be drawn I believe.

Great idea Prof. That thing was awesome. You don't have to be at TFCTFN to win?
Your stuff looked very cool btw.

WOW - I'm not worthy of that, PM! I'm a hack compared to you.
Let me know what the tickets will be and I'm in for some to keep the lights on. If some one sends me a pm with details I will follow through. I've been busy with ACONE's annual conference and trying to find a new location if we have to move in May.
Where do you find the time to make these things on top of all your other things!  |

Doesn't sound like it as deadline is Friday. My feeling is ticket sales on vice auction will detract from raffle tickets from table if sold at same time.
I think it is a good move. |

Buying tickets online by Paypal will end Friday at noon as in addition to getting the tickets done for the vise I have to get stuff ready for TFCTFN too after I get out of work. We should keep them seperate though overall  . |
