The rules are simple: everything in your entry must come from offcuts you already had. No buying material for this.
How to enter
- Build the thing.
- Post it in the Showcase with the tag
offcut-challenge. - Include the recipe — machine, material, settings — because half the point is that everyone else learns something.
Judging
Community vote on the Showcase entries, closing at the end of the month. Three prizes:
- Winner: £75 shop credit and a featured slot on the home page
- Runners-up (×2): £25 shop credit
Why offcuts
Most of us have a box of material we feel guilty about. The best entries in this challenge historically haven't been the most complicated — they've been the ones where someone looked at a 90mm strip of walnut and saw something the rest of us didn't.
