Novakon would like to take this time to thank all of its participants and enthusiastic customers for posting interesting threads and small projects on our forum. As a result we have seen the development of increasing user participation submitting great ideas in video and picture form in the CNC Zone forum. In response we’d like to reward everyone’s genuine interest and efforts by offering a summer contest for all Novakon machine owners to participate in. For the next two months, we hope that everyone will take this opportunity to post their favorite project for all to enjoy and win some useful prizes.
Requirements:
• Must utilize a Novakon CNC machine.
• Must be a single or an ongoing project that generates interest and discussion within the forum in the overall operation of the Novakon CNC mills.
• Must use a combination of videos, photos and/or CAD/CAM drawings to represent the posted project.
• The project name must be contained in the title with the term “contest”. For example: “Contest - Making a Rocket Engine”.
• The machine in use must be visibly identifiable in the related photos and videos.
• The thread must stay on task. Needless conversation not relating to the continuation of the project will not be recognized for the selection of the winners.
Duration: This contest will begin August 1, 2013 and will end by September 30, 2013.
Winner Selection: Each applicant has to start a new thread specifically for their project, within the contest time frame. Three winners will be selected according to the number of posts made by the contestant or the number viewer responses as well as to the total number of views recorded. A final determination of the winners will be made by Novakon based on the total activity generated by the project. The winners will be announced on our forum on October 5th, 2013.
Claims: Winners must claim their prize via a “private message (pm)” to Novakon through the CNC Zone’s messaging system to validate the winner’s shipping address. Prizes must be claimed by October 31, 2013 and will be shipped via standard Canada Post within Continental North America paid by Novakon.
Novakon reserves the right to disqualify any project that is deemed inappropriate or offensive in nature to viewers.
Prizes:
1st Place: One advanced ATC tool set (value $399).
2nd Place: One GEO Magic (Alibre) Personal Edition CAD Software (value $199).
3rd Place: One Mill Turn 3-Jaw Chuck with 3/4“ shaft for direct insertion into Novakon’s R8 quick change collet (value $149).
The demonstrations can be as simple or as complicated as desired. Since the final winners will be based on the number of views and interactions, selecting interesting projects will bring the most user participation and should generate the highest degree of success. The comments of the posts should stay on task and be as constructive as possible. Soliciting comments for help is encouraged to bring the project goal to completion within the time period.
We wish all participants good luck and happy cutting!
