Hello everyone!!!
The convention will be here before you know it and everyone's favorite OUCH auction will take place there.
As in every year we are asking for donations of items to be auctioned off and given as door prizes.
Past items have included photography, paintings, handcrafted checkerboard and picture frames, cheese, maple syrup, chocolate, engraved lighters, USA Hockey Jersey, hot and cold packs, drawings, books, computer programs, fancy lotions and soaps, candles, gift certificates, CD's and DVD's...and literally crates more!!!!
If you need to ship items, Lizzie(alienspacebabe) will be collecting them. I will give you the address.
I will be donating one bottle of Maple Syrup.
If you would like to donate an item post it here! 
THANK YOU!!!
-Rori
your fearless convention chairchick

For the Cheese lovers amoungst us, I'll of course be bringing WI Famous Aged Super sharp Cheddar again, 2 2.5 lb. blocks. This year however, I've been able to stumble upon some that is even older than last years.
Special edition 6 year old instead of 4 year old super sharp! This stuff is selling fast at the factory so I'll have to get there this afternoon to ensure I have it for the auction.
Jonny better bring plenty cash for this one...Rori can you start the bidding higher than last year?

Best I can do is create the biggest shiny to date, the ones I mail out take from 2-4 hours to make, this one will take me at least 8 hours.
I will even make it out of brass instead of stainless steel and have a clear lacquer coating professionally applied, so it will never have to be poslished to keep the shine.
Is that ok?

I will be bringing the model I did "BEAST HUNTER" plus also have about 10-15 other items to donate(diecast cars,sports cards (some autographed),a few hats,a yahoo digital camera(still in package),and other things I am finding in my basement room of collectibles. It seams if there is a lot of stuff auction might take a long time or are you going to take most of the stuff and do a raffle and auction off say the 25-35 biggest items ? just curiuos Terry
P.S. I would like to ship out the items I collect in the next two months so I will have just the model I am doing to bring with me cause its fragile so if you could send me an address to ship items I would thank you very much Terry(the builder)

This is the biggest shiny I have ever made, its also the only one I have made out of brass.
It will be up for auction at the convention, so bring your check book....LOL
If I were to charge someone for this it would not be cheap, but I will keep that to myself, I ground and polished a flat spot on the bottom, so you dont have to worry about it rolling off a flat surface.....LMAO
Ladies, just think...you could put your make up on in style
