One of Arboristsite's most well liked members John King AKA T-Bone75 got real sick a little while back, ended up in the hospital with what he and his doctors thought was pneumonia, his condition deteriorated rapidly, and before too long he was in a medically induced coma on life support.
He had an infection in his blood that nearly killed him. He is now on the mend, but ended up in a bad way financially.
I was asked by some of John's friends if I could help raise some money for him. My idea was to get a couple of new saws, modify them, and then raffle them off. Well it seems that using the work raffle is taboo, so we are calling this a donation event.
The first saw was a J'Red 2253 that I ported.......that event has ended already. We raised several thousand dollars, a name was drawn by a computer generated program, and now that saw is in the new owner's hands.
With the trouble AS had with the hack, I can't find the thread from when John first got sick.......if you guys need me to find that, I'll look further. I can tell you this though, John didn't ask, nor did he want any help, his friends are the guys that got this rolling. He needed some help though, that is a fact.
These links go to a couple of threads on AS....
Here is the Donation Thread
And here is the Build Thread
Here's a chance to help John out, and win a damn nice saw.....
