Builders: This is obviously a new deal spawned from the mind of modeler, George Crittenden.  If it's well accepted, we'll make it an Annual Event. At the very least it gives all you talented builders a chance to show off your work to a very large and knowing audience. We want it to be fair and fun. If you have any ideas to make the "contest" better - let me know.

Thanks,

Byron
