Black Friday Hint: sign up for the newsletter!

Step away from the leftovers.  Black Friday is happening, and MakerBot is not going to be left behind…not this time.

Something big is going to drop on Friday, and there’s only one way to find out about it: by signing up for the MakerBot Industries newsletter. If you have already signed up for the newsletter, you will receive the notice…but if I were you I’d check to make sure your newsletter subscription is up to date by updating your details after following the link.

Not only is the MakerBot Newsletter one of the finest missives of its type, including clever jokes and brightly-colored photos of super-hip MakerBotsters, but it also often includes a special sale code.  And this Friday’s letter will be no exception…in fact, it will be one of the best deals we’ve ever offered.  Ever.

If you miss out on this limited time deal while trapped in a tryptophan-induced coma, you will regret it for the rest of your life.  Well, potentially.  Do you want to take that risk?

First off, I want to give a shout-out to pomalin for their Bucket Of OctopSTA and second entry in the “moregangsta” challenge.  As the first-challenge-uploader and first-to-upload two separate entries, Pomalin receives 27,000 internet points AND bragging rights^3!  1

Second, how about another lightning design challenge?!  Can you design and upload a turkey design2 before midnight on November 24, 2011?  9000 internet points, bragging rights, and mad blog-nods to:

  • First to upload
  • Most realistic
  • Most awesome

Please be sure and tag your entries with “turkeyday2011” so everyone can find your contribution.  Also, don’t forget to add other appropriate other tags to your designs.

I made this for thanksgiving biscuits. It's not really in season now, but you could print one out for next year
