Thanks Ray, enjoy the trip.
We've got 20 for the Craftsman Rabbit Plane, the metaphors, that highly useful looks as if it's new, 4-Fatmax Level w/case, and a hand smithed bottle opener I think.
20.00, need more!
Who'll give it?

Make it $35.00.
Tim did make another "Wizard head" bottle opener to throw in the box. Of course, some of the younger crowd may not remember when beer bottles didn't have twist off caps and will need training in the proper use of an opener.
I am unable to post a picture of it - not just because of my poor photography skills, but also my lack of technology skills. I did (I think) manage to finally get an e mail to Calvin that he might be able to decipher.
So, I am at $35 - do we hear $40?
Here's the booty from Tim.
This handsmithed bottle opener is included in the box with the Rabbit Plane and the 4' Fatmax level.

And to review:
The above handsmithed bottle opener is in a box along with this Craftsman Rabbit Plane.
and the Fatmax 4' level w/case.
Of course, expect some of those metaphors for padding.
One bid takes all three (and padding) items.
Don't be bashful, bid now.
and don't be cheap neither.

That Fatmax is brand new, or at least never used, still has the price tags on it.

Thanks James!
We've got 35.00 and looking for 40.00..............
Well, actually we're looking for more than forty, but in keeping with auction tradition we'll creep up.
Or, be a shocker and go way up right now all at once!
You decide.
I know one thing, it would be an insult to the donators at this price we have here.
What say ye?

The "new" guy from Maryland jumps the bid to $50.01 and will look around to see what he might be able to toss in the box.

OK, there's a new guy trying to work his way into the big time Auction over here. And like one of the famed regulars of the past, he throws some cents into the mix.
And if it's one thing we need here its some sense-common sense wouldn't hurt none either.
The NEW BID is 50.01 and he's looking for something else to slip into the BOX along with the CRAFTSMAN RABBIT PLANE, the BRAND spanking NEW 4' FATMAX LEVEL WITH CASE, the very finely HAND SMITHED BOTTLE OPENER from TIM and the ever lovin' METAPHORS.
If we ever do give this box 'o prizes away and someone takes the lot-They are going to be some lucky s.o.b.'s
This PRIZE BOX is HUGE. and getting HUGE-R.
We've got 50.01, who'll go higher? Remember, there's more!

HammerII, you bid 50 aught 1. We've had no increase in the bid. You mentioned looking around for an added item to toss in the box..........anything turn up?
Because, we've got a current bid of 50.01 and are looking to have someone raise it. Maybe if we increased the booty there'd be a little action here.
If not, well......you wouldn't have to incur mailing costs to get it somewhere.
We've got 50.01, HIGHER anyone?

Now I gotta go walk off the 10 lbs. I gained yesterday.
My stomach still hurts from yesterday but I'm heading out to the store for some good bread and pickles for turkey sandwiches.

If you run into Jacci Mahrt, say hi from me. She's a sweetheart.

Alright, we've reached 60.01 thanks to that itinerant boats guy.
And no action for a while since.
So, lets give it one more try here on beefing up the bid.
HammerII may still dump something else in the box, don't know.
So who wants to take up the bid?
Anyone interested?
We can't wait too damn long.

DEADLINE FOR THIS AUCTION=FRIDAY 6pm EST DECEMBER 5th
We've got 60.01 bid for the hand smithed bottle opener made by Tim, the Craftsman Rabbit Plane from Boss Hogg, and the Brand New 4' FATMAX LEVEL W/Case. Included at no extra charge-metaphors.
I'm hoping the extra traffic for the main event over on the back porch might sweeten the pot. I know, I have no honor. But like the Boss knows, you gotta make hay when there's hay to be made.
So Bid Now and until 5PM this coming Friday-Dec 5th.
See above for pictures of this box of goods at auction.
Thanks!

WE HAVE AN AUCTION ENDING AND BOATS IS THE MAN!
Winning bid of 60.01 From BOATS ! , which brings the grand total for the Auction of the bottle opener, the Craftsman Plane and the NEW FATMAX level w/case, along with the metaphors to 135.01 I think.
That's super good, thanks to Boss Hog for starting it out with the Plane donation. And Heck for giving up the FATMAX Level. Tim from Michigan for making a real nice bottle opener (for the imports), IBEW Chuck for bidding, winning in the first round and then turning around and re-donating the box of goods back! and lastly but not leastly-Luka for those damn metaphors.
So, Boats I need your mailing or shipping address so I can pass it along to our prize donators. Email me through here and we'll get the show on the road. You can either pay through paypal or mail a check to:
