New addition to site...

[KurtHuhn]

All,

Hopefully everyone noticed the donate button in the top right of the site this morning.

The goal is, with enough capital raised to allow it, to upgrade the server hardware to modern technology and current version of the operating system, as well as offset some of the costs associated with the hosting of the site.

To recognize members that donate, I've created a special rank called "Site Supporter" - just let me know your forum username when you donate so that I can add that to your profile. Of course, you may also donate anonymously.

Thanks!

The kid is in. Thanks Kurt.

How about 2% of sales. Let's see ... I have sold five or six this year at an average of about 100 ... so that's $12. Some of you guys may have some larger balances.

How about 2% of sales.

I haven't sold a pipe yet, but I've sunk plenty of cash into supplies; I'll total up 2% of my losses and figure out what Kurt owes me.

I'm in. Profit is not yet exceeding outlay, but hey, it's fun and it keeps me off the streets when it's too hot to fire up the forge.

[KurtHuhn]

Too hot like the last week! No forging has been accomplished at all since the beginning of the month, and I'm dangerously close to reaching the deadline of a KITH. This one might end up being a stock removal knife if the this weather doesn't break.

Thank you all for your donations!

I'll be putting them to good use, along with a bit of my own cash, to be sure that this forum has the benefit of current technology. See my next post to see the results so far!
