Overview
What can you make using one single piece of wood?
We want to see how you can maximize material usage through smart, efficient designs.
We're looking for projects made from either:
- one single framing stud (such as a "2x4" or "two-by-four" as they are often called) or similar piece of construction lumber
- OR any single solid wood board similar in size to a "two-by-four" (we'll be flexible)
- OR a single sheet of manufactured wood sheet material, such as plywood, particle board, MDF, OSB, etc.
Your finished project should consist of material mostly from the same original starting piece, but a small amount of hardware and other miscellaneous materials can be used as needed.
Make something awesome and you could win!
