Yes, the time has come for yet another great Lumberjocks.com challenge! For those who aren’t in the know Lumberjocks.com is probably one of the most frequented woodworking websites on the net. Each year Lumberjocks.com host various challenges throughout the year with various themes. One theme was based on what a woodworker could build with a 2×4. Another involved building anything without glue or fasteners and with awesome sponsors and prizes awarded to the winners the entries are just amazing. This summer’s challenge is no different.

1. One Man’s Junk – … is a LumberJock’s treasure! We’re testing your creativity on this one. So, put your woodworking caps on and think of an innovative way to reuse some old hardware, reclaimed wood and/or recycled junk and turn it into something unique and special. In the description of your entry give us a bit of history on the “junk” and how it inspired you to create the end product.
2. Serve It Up With Class – Summer is the time to take your meals and refreshments outside. Use your woodworking skills to create a serving tray using at least 2 different varieties of wood. Use inlay, marquetry, carving, stains and/or any other woodworking technique to turn your serving tray into a piece of art!
The contest is a blast, so be sure to check it out! All the rules and instructions are available on the official Lumberjocks Summer Challenge page. The deadline for entries is July, 31, 2008 at 3:00pm CDT. Good luck!
