Thanks for heading this thing up Bill  :yoyo:
Lordals's wife Crystal has been diagnosed with cancer. Apparently so much of it that the doctors are unable to use laser treatment.
She's now facing a costly attempt at surgery to remove it, and as if that isn't enough she has to be hospitalized to get her blood sugar under control before the surgery. The poor woman was down to 74 pounds at the beginning of the month.

Charles and his wife know this is going to be an extremely costly routine. Crystal fears the doctors will refuse treating her due to their inability to put the full minimum down payment up. We know that that wouldn't happen and insurance will help a little but combined with mortgage and utilities, these folks are headed for some hard times, emotionally and financially.

Lordals's been an undisputed member of the FnF family for quite a while. Let's show him and Crystal just how tight of a family we are around here. :wink:

Forgot to mention ALL proceeds from this will go to Lordal and his wife Crystal.  :wink:

Perfect reason for me to get off my butt and blow the dust off the lathe.
Count me in for somethin. I'll pm ya sometime in the near future Bill.
Scott

Thanks Scott

I will come up with something for sure. :wink:

Thanks Al

You know what I'm donating Bill. Just tell me how you want to do it.

Well Bop You will have to post the pics and do the write up on your donation and you will have to take care of all the shipping on it

Thank You Very Much  :yoyo: :yoyo:


P.S. Could you get Chet to take the pics  :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao:

Thanks Glen

:laugh2: :hahaha:

You guys know I'm in...I will throw in a P-Bomb, a Reactor and a Lanyard for the cause. Whoever gets them will need to contact me with their choice of wood and lanyard color. There won't be any picture since the wood type will be determined by the winner. If you want I can dig into the picture archives and see what I can muster up for reference.

Steve

Thats Great Steve !!!!

Thanks

Anybody sending checks now need to make the Checks Payable to Charles Sharpe,and please be sure that your screen name is on a piece of paper or on the envelope so I know who you are

From the looks of things there will be multiple winners.I can't say How many,and not excatly sure how this will be handled yet.Things are still in the works

Thank You
Bill

I would like to throw in a donation too. I have been doing some part time bowfishing guiding and am willing to donate a 2 night shoot. All the winning bidder would have to provide is transportation down here, their food and their license (which are very cheap). This will include lodging for 2 nights, 2 nights worth of bowfishing out of a fully rigged boat setup to night fish. The main fish we would be after are catfish, but plan on shooting carp, gar, mudfish, mullet and any other legal fish that gets in the way of an arrow. Here are some pictures of fish we have shoot, and the caliber of fish that is available on Santee Cooper lakes.

Jerry

Thanks Ronnie and Jerry !!!

Bill,

I've got a call that I can add to the fund as well.


Brian

Thanks Brian

I'm in !

Thanks Brad

I am glad I was working alone tonight when I saw this I the big guy that I am started crying My family and I appreciate everything you folk are the very best kind . I am proud to call each and everyone of you all my friends and Family Because that is what you all are you are all part of my Family. I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart and I am sure my wife and son do as well for everything you have and are still doing for us and for all the prayers Her operation is set for next wednesday and I will keep you all posted as to how it went .

Well guys, I got a British 303 that I am willing to raffle or however you boys want to do it. This gun isn't mint by any stretch, but it is accurate. We sighted it in last year and it was really shooting using the peep sites with the rear elevation aperture on it.
Here's a pic. I don't know what to set the guns price at.........maybe Chet, CCP or some others can give me a rough figure on what it would be worth. Remember who and what the money is going for and let your heart be your guide.
I'm guessing it's probably somewhere between the $150 to $200 mark, but I just don't know for sure.
BTW, my wife took this picture with a real camera so BITE ME if ya don't like it.  :laf:

Oh, no, no, no...we like your wife   :eyebrow:

I might raffle her as well then.  :laf:    :confused: Wait!! Who's gonna feed me, wash my clothes, clean the house and take care of the kids.  :doh2:

She just went back off the market.  :nofgr: :biggrin:

Bop Thank You for your donation,and we are sure glad your wife can take pics  :eyebrow: :yoyo:

I'm going to send a check also Bill.
I looked around for an item to donate and can't find anything worthy. I think I got your address.

If you end up have several little piles of items, I could also throw in some FnF Hats and decals.

So we have an option of either sending a check or waiting to bid on the loot?

Well, I dont think it makes a difference one way or another. I figured I'd send a check because as administrator, I dont want any of the prizes. I'd rather you guys had all the shots at it.

QuoteI dont want any of the prizes

Oh so our prizes aren't good enough for you huh...Just kidding Jimbo. I'm looking forward to seeing the prize list :wink:

Steve

Thanks Jim

This is gonna be a raffle

Ticket prices are
$5 each or 5 for $20
$25 will get ya 6 and $40 will get 10 ect......

Thank You

Bill can you PM me your addy so I can buy into the raffle?

Thanks

Sure can

PM sent

Oh, by the way boys. Whoever wins the gun will have to have a FFL holder to ship it too. I got a FFL holder here that I'll have to use, so I'll have to pay him to send it to your FFL. It will probably cost you a fee as well.
Just thought I'd bring that up.  :wink:

Sign me up!  I will see what I can spin on the lathe between now and Nov..

Doug
ORION Calls

Thanks Doug

Hey Bop, that's cool you're doin that.  :congrats:
Double check, but I don't think you have to ship from an FFL.
Hopefully somebody else will jump in here. I know it has to be shipped to an FFL.
Anybody??
Scott

You are correct, Scott.  You don't have to ship from an FFL.  But it has to go to an FFL.

Having said that, I always ship from an FFL.   I want to make sure the gun is taken out of my name and I have a record of where it went and who shipped it for me.  Ya never know.  Somebody might want to do a drive by with that 303 blazin'.   :biggrin:

Hello guys,I am in also don't know if I will have time to make anything on the lathe but I will have something to put in.Start my new job tomarrow. Same job new plant.
