Ms461 Raffle for breast cancer

[Paragon Builder]

My buddy just found out his wife has breast cancer a couple months ago and is getting way over his head with medical bills. I was talking with his brother and about it and learned he has an ms461 he bought a couple years ago and has like 10 tanks through it. I'd like to sell or auction it off for him and I'll build him a good Saw to replace it. His brother is going to talk to him about it, but I'm pretty sure he will go for it.
What do y'all think? Any ideas?

Wow, thanks Eric, I wasn't really asking for money, but if you would like to donate I will forward it to him.

I think I'll build him one of the 262's I've got here to build. It's a good all around Saw I think. Thoughts?

Dan I like to donate direct rather than to "organizations" that take a cut. Send me your email that gets you PayPal money. I just got that 262 with KS87 setup you want to use it as a base saw? It doesn't need much to be a runner. Phucking cancer... Dammit.

Know a woman in Utah that has cured over 200 women with Breast Cancer with Wild Mexican Yam Cream! She swears by it! That and Cassia Tea!

That's rough to hear. Glad you're helping to step up and get things done. I think instead of auction or direct sale you may do better offering a raffle. Then people may spend more money for more chances and you have more people getting in on it

If it hasn't been stated already: Start a Go Fund Me account & a raffle on AS or elsewhere

May have more folks that want to donate stuff

We don't have a gofundme page. Full details are in the post mentioned which should be publicly viewable.
Thanks everyone. Very much appreciate it.

Eric we can post the info here too. I'll help coordinate between the 2 threads. I don't want to leave guys out that want to contribute but don't want to join another site.

If you post here I would be in on a raffle. I refuse to join that site. A few minutes of looking around over there and the drama that all the "cool" guys left here to get away from thankfully took most of it with them.

I'm figuring out what I will be donating, so stand by. I'm moving next week so a lot of my stuff is buried in the cabin garage at the moment.

Thank you for carrying the thread over here. If I signed up over there I'd probably be banned immediately.
