Time for another "guess the number" contest and this time the winner will recieve a six inch, two wheel, poly arbor, two six inch silicon carbide wheels (both are 100 grit), one expanding drum ( like new), two exact span drums and an assorment of silicon carbide belts (new and used). I will most certainly add some surprises to the box to make sure it is full!! ;D ;D ;D All you will need to start cabbing is a motor, splash pans, a base to mount it all on, bushings and a wetting system. Scroll to the end for pictures. I will pay the shipping to the winner! Rule #1- This contest is only open to members of this forum who joined before today, 3-5-10. Rule #2- This contest is only open to members of this forum who do not own a cabbing unit, but have been wanting to buy one. Rule #3- You may post as many guesses as you wish, but ONLY the last one will count! Rule #4- Please take the time to read everyone elses guess, so you don't duplicate theirs. Rule #5- This contest will run until next Sunday, the 14th, to make sure everyone has time to guess. It will close at 8:00 p.m. central. Rule #6- Your guess should be between 1 and 500. Rule #7- Closest guess, over or under, wins. In case of a tie, I will come up with a clever tie breaker I sent the winning number via a private message to another member here, who will verify the winning number at the close of this competition. Now, start guessing! The arbor. The wheels. The belts. 23 used (assorted grits) 9 new 600 grit and 7 new 320 grit.

Cool contest Troy. I will throw in a small flat rate box of slabs and slabettes to the winner so they will have something to practice with.
Good luck everyone.......................Tony

WOW... Thanks Tony!!!
I just thought of something that I thought I should add. I will pay shipping in the U.S. only! If someone international wants to guess and wins, you would have to pay part of the shipping. Sorry, but I think shipping this internationaly would break my bank account! ;D
