4444 Karma - AH-64 Apache Helicopter - WINNERS Announced in OP Login/Join

To celebrate my post No. 4444, I offer this karma to the forum.

A stainless steel model kit for the AH-64 Apache helicopter.



It's this: Link

-Gift Envelope Includes - Unassembled Model
-Easy to Follow Instructions
-From Steel Sheets to Museum Quality 3D Model
-Assembled Size 4.8x4.8x2.2 inches
-No Glue or Solder Needed

First couple of reviews on amazon:
"Love Metal Earth. They're a little hard to work with and very easy to mess up on but great products and the end result is very cool. Make sure you have some tweezers, needle nose pliers (preferably with no teeth as that can damage the metal), and a bent needle nose pliers if you have one as that helps with hard to reach areas. The metal is sharp so use caution and take your time as mistakes are difficult to undo."

"These things are hands down the coolest models ever created. Easy to learn, immensely difficult to master. Each one I do my craftsmanship gets better. Great hobby/time killer/something to keep my hands busy while I watch tv."

Karma is open to all SF members in good standing (i.e. signed waiver on file in the home office) as of 12/11/17 with a mailing address inside the US (AK and HI included). Karmanator will select the winner in a few days.


*****WINNERS: The great and mighty Karmanator has selected COOKSTER as the winner. I have also taken the liberty to award a duplicate prize to GARANDGUY for his brother in law.

Both of you , kindly shoot your mailing addresses to me at the email in my profile. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! Thank you for being a part of the greatest forum on the webz.

I am sure we would all appreciate a picture of the finished product when you are done. Let's see how you do with it (or as my former business partner used to say to me: "I'm just gonna sit here and watch you fuck this up).

I'd love a chance at that. Thanks for such a generous Karma!

I just want to congratulate you on the milestone and your unique karma. Don’t include me in the karma however, I have no knack for that but I do like the idea.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Wow first model I have seen like it this, so cool! Great Karma! With living in a Motorhome full time this would not work for me so don’t include me in on this. Just had to comment on its coolness.

To be honest I felt some disappointment when I found out that you weren’t giving away a real helicopter but I guess I could make do with the model, Thanks.
