Voting for the 2016 build challenge is up, go check it out:

viewtopic.php?f=10145&t=49488

This challenge had a long run time, despite this, I still punked out and didn't finish. BUT, many did! there are some really cool instruments in there. Be sure to check out the threads and vote. These challenges are a lot of fun, if you haven't been following them, you should. there is always some little tidbit you can pick up watching someone post their progress, especially so if they are trying something new. Make sure you reward them by voting for your favorite!

I'm also soliciting feedback on how long we should leave the voting open so let's hear your thoughts on that.

Bryan

Thanks for doing this. Any way to start the voting thread off with a link to each of the instruments? Right now it is not clear where or how you view them. Maybe a link to the entry that shows the finished instrument and let them work backwards from there if they want.

Will do!

Edit:

I posted this in the ballot thread but I may as well paste it here as well:

Here are links to the last page of each thread. somewhere on each of these pages you will find links to the maker's video. I encourage you to look back on the rest of the thread though there is some great stuff in there. The first pages of each thread probably have the details about the goals of the challenge which may interest many of you. Happy voting!

Well it was a difficult decision but I voted. Congrats to all of you that finished! Wish I'd finished but I sure like my remodeled shop now!

I'm having a hard time choosing on this one but I wish that those who didn't post videos(or at least sound clips) would, becasue that would help a lot. Lot's of good choices here, in fact they are all fantastic.

Don't forget to look through the threads and vote.

I think Lance has a tentative stop date on the voting for 7-4-17 (8 days from now). I know it can be allot to look through so if you feel like we need to extend that speak up. Otherwise, get out to vote and be heard!
