Overview

There were so many amazing entries in the Furniture Challenge that we’ve decided to launch a Woodworking Challenge with even more possibilities for entry and even more prizes to win!

Enter any Step by Step, Photo, or Video Instructable that involves wood and you could be eligible to win a Bosch Table Saw, Milwaulkee 18V Lithium Ion Drill and Driver Kit, Bosch Router Kit, Leatherman Wave, and more! If you’ve been looking for an excuse to make something out of wood this weekend, this is it since anything made with, or involving wood is eligible. 

Don’t have a project idea but have a lot of woodworking knowledge that you’d like to share with the world? No problem! A special judges prize will be awarded to the author of the best Instructable that explains any woodworking skill clearly. Simply use your own photos in the Instructable, give it a clear title that people will easily be able to find like “Cutting Perfect Miter Joints” and enter it in the contest.
