Was waiting until other contest was almost done.
I changed the initial rules slightly.
Just my way of saying thankyou to the many people on RTH. I have learned so much here. Am at times overwhelmed at the kindness of members.
The contest: Below are 3 photos of the total items included in the SFRB box (with a coin for size reference) prior to packing items and taping box. The thickness of the items range from 1/8” to 3/8”. I have also posted a photo of the vintage 1970’s scale used. Participants will guess the total cooking time if the taped box contained lamb/pork/beef to be cooked well done and if it contained poultry. Each guess must contain both times and each must be correct to win. For example. L/P/B= 170 minutes. Poultry=133 minutes.
Participants may guess once per 24 hour period, which begins at 7:00 AM, CDT. I will check responses several times per day. If someone is spot on, will post that and they are the winner. If at the end of 2 weeks, no one has guessed the total cooking time, then the closest guess will win. If there is a tie for closest weight, I will post such and those participants will be given one more guess for total weight. The person closest will win.
I am guessing that someone will guess the toal weight quickly, due to scale limitations.
The prize: A SFRB of slabs, slabetttes and preforms. These were all won, purchased, gifted, or traded for on RTH. Some are my finds that were cut by another. Sources are: rockjunquie drocknut manofglass toiv0 Dr DG stardiamond a few others (cannot remember who) and the latest Traveling Rock Box.
The description: I have compiled and packed a SFRB of above items, provided suitable packing materials, taped the box for shipment and weighed. The only tape left to apply will be that for attaching the shipping label to the box.
I am encouraging anyone who could use the material to play along. Who doesn’t love a good guessing game? If the winner has no use for the material, then I encourage them to donate it to RTH for the next round of auctions. I would send directly to Tommy if the winner chooses. Or, if upon receipt, the winner can do the same after inspecting the contents.
The box contains a nice variety of items. Maybe all are pictured and maybe there are some hidden ones under the others.
Have fun. Here are the photos:

Disclaimer: After weighing the taped box on this scale, I verified weight on my digital bathroom scale. They were the same.
If you have any questions or do not understand the format for responses, please let me know.
