Visa Gift Card Winner

Visa Gift Card Winner!

We have a winner of the $100 Visa Gift Card!  We sent out the Photo request, and you responded.  Now the drawing, and the winner.  It just so happens that even with the random drawing, he was also the first person to submit a photo and short story for our give-away.  Now he has $100 to go buy tools for his next fun project.

A big THANK YOU to all who submitted project photos.  There weren’t too many, so competition for the Visa Gift Card gave pretty good odds, and the project show are definitely good ones.  View the page of Customer Project Stories with project photos and short blurbs about Do-It-Yourself projects, then get inspiration to build and submit your own.  We’ll grow this page over time with customer photos and stories, so send us yours!

Now back to the task at hand . . .

And The Visa Gift Card Winner Is:

DIY Crane Project Wins

“My Dad taught me welding:  Arc, Spot and Oxy Acetylene.  So, when retired, I decided to get my certificate at Trade College.  I made a crane.  I was awarded Student of the Year!  Love working with metal.”

Looks like he won yet again!  Thanks for submitting the photo and the story.  This submission as well as others are posted on the page of Customer Project Stories.

Customize Your Project

For those of you looking closely, you can see some modifications done on the crane to meet his specific needs.  Customized projects are where it’s at!  Great job with the crane, and congratulations on both the “Student of the Year” and the Visa Gift Card.

I’d like to especially point out that donjarsi has been welding for years, but still decided to take a class.  As in this article about choosing Which Welder to Buy, I always recommend taking a class to learn more and become better.

We want to see your customization.  We also want to share your good ideas and project success with others that may be thinking along the same lines. You never know who may also want to follow what you’ve done, so submit your project photos and some words about what you’ve done.  We’ll include them with the other Customer Project Stories as inspiration.

Thank You All !!
