Hi Keith, I thought you were putting out "fake News", as I could find any "proof" of your statement anywhere on this site. Then later I saw an email with a link to it, it was on another site, U tube.

Thanks for the congrats. The big winner Marvin's piccolo banjo was very deserving of the top award well done.

Thanks to the judges for picking one of my builds and for running the contest. I hope they post  photos of all the contributions on Cigar Box Nation, so we can see all the other builders work.

Lol Taffy, just know that it isn't in my DNA to spam, or create "Fake News". The good Lord, would not be happy with me for sure.
