Start Date: From Now

_____________________________________________
Materials:
Entrants to obtain ONE standard size shipping timber pallet (approximately 1200mm x 1200mm). It must be made of timber only (eg not plywood, mdf or chipboard). It can be brand new, weathered, falling to pieces, burnt, any state at all provided it’s solid timber and it’s a pallet.
No other timber is allowed, although 20% of the total material may be of a different material. For example it could be stainless steel for a negative detail, hinges, runners, handles or knobs etc.
Construction:
You can use any form of construction, dowels and biscuits are allowed. Use every single bit or the smallest splinter of the pallet to create your master piece.
How to Enter:
Entry is open to all Forumites. Please register by posting “I’m in” or similar within this thread.
The entry must be started and (hopefully) finished within the competition dates.
Submissions:
All entries must be sent via email to Christos by 6 pm Sunday, 19th July 2015. I'll send the email address to all entrants a little closer to the submission date.
Please send in 6 photos of your project, including a photo of the pallet you picked up. All pictures must be sent via email to Christos on or before the finishing time and date( 6pm, 19th of July 2015).
Photos sent must meet the same criteria as the Forum Photo standards as this will make it easier for you to send in your submission and for us to create the photo voting thread.
Please send photos of your pallet and project even if it's unfinished, so we can still have a look at what you were up to.
Judging:
Judging will be in two parts, then adding them together for final score.
Part One will be an average score derived from the input of three anonymous Judges.
Part Two will be from the results of an initial anonymous poll on the forums, this keeps it nice, easy, clean and fair.
The poll will be open from the day the photo thread is up and will close at 6pm on Thursday, 30th of July 2015.
In the event of a draw, the final decision will be made by Ubeaut, who has judged at national level.
Please Note: If you blog your entry, post pictures of your entry anywhere, or identify your work before the voting closes, you will be disqualified.http://www.ubeaut.biz/nono.gif
