Free Lathe
Yes that's right, Free. During the Overland Park, Kansas AAW Symposium, Delta International Machinery donated two new Delta X5 full size Model 911703 lathes valued at $2250 each. They were used as demo lathes during the Symposium. Your chapter can win one of these lathes.

The AAW Board of Directors has decided that as an added bonus for our members, that one Delta lathe will be awarded to an individual who either renews his/her AAW membership, or joins the AAW for 2006 on or prior to January 15, 2006. (This includes members who have joined for several years at one time to include 2006). The winner will be selected by a random drawing from a pool of members joining or renewing during this period. The winner will be called and asked the name of his/her chapter. That chapter will win the second Delta lathe. That could be your chapter.

Question:

When is the random drawing to be held? And when will we be notified who won these lathes? Just curious...
 
Ah wish ah may, ah wish ah might, have the wish, ah wish tonight.... 😀

Keeping my fingers crossed and holding my breath....

As a sidenote, user "Jacob703" has been banned. The email I sent him with the notification of being banned was bounced. No big surprise there.

(A minor clarification. That user was posting bogus messages. The messages had nothing to do with the content of any of the threads. )

I'll post the results of the drawing tonight by 9pm. I do not have the results with me here at work. The winner has been notified.
