Selected members will be contacted by me, Shawn, (samoran1) with details of what is needed for calendar via PM and will be asking for an email address to receive photos and information.

As always we will have a pre-sale for those of you who want to ensure your calendar. We will start the Pre-Sale earlier as well so more people are aware. PRE-ORDERS WILL NOT BE SHIPPED UNTIL PRODUCED. We will have banners and links on the site and Facebook for pre-sale and for sale link.

If you Pre-Order you're guaranteed a calendar. After the pre-sale they are first come first serve. Calendars will be limited after the pre-order so order accordingly.

Thanks for all the help and support. This is the 13th year of the calendar and if it weren't for everyone's help, encouragement and support we wouldn't be able to do them!

Shawn

Shawn... @samoran1 , can you clarify for us. The rules don't say a nomination needs a "second."
Do they need to be seconded, or just accepted?
 
Hi All. I’d like to submit my XS build for the 2025 calendar. Here are a few photos from the handbuilt show in Austin, TX. If anyone has build specific questions I’m happy to answer them!
