    Cool

    I've been keeping an eye out for a useable pallet or two. Saw some at the back of Bunnies today - pine, pine, pine, MDF!! Yep, MDF pallets - don't think I'd be able to make much out of that!

    It shouldn’t be 100% pallet plus finishing. A small percentage should be for mixed medium, glass, tin, stone etc. Maybe up to 20% of the visual surface. Makes the comp more challenging and interesting.

    Great rules, but just over 5 weeks from now is way to short. It will probably take most over a week to find a suitable pallet. It would be better if the closing was last day of April. Just my thoughts.

    Doesn’t really matter with you Claw, by the start of April you will already have made 5 tables,3 bits of Art, maybe a sideboard or 2, and have spare time for this competition
