Thread: Weisyboy's Pallet Challenge - Entries and Poll for Voting

Awww... decisions, decisions, decisions. Do I pick the one with the biggest "Wow! I can't believe it was a pallet" factor? Do I pick the one with what appears to have taken the most skill? The widest variety of skills? The most original idea? The one that simply appeals most to me?

It's a hard, hard choice...

You should all be proud of yourselves!


Oh... and Wendy? Will the poll results be visible now or can they be concealed until the polling closes? I'd hate to think that people could be influenced by what they think is the "popular vote." (Maybe I'm just overdosing on American Politics...? )

Jeez Skew, I just about ******* myself then thinking the poll voters where viewable, which they aren't, but at this stage, there is no easy way to allow people to pick more than one as well as hide the results of the poll until later.

I'd greenie you for that scare, but I have to spread them around a bit more

Took me a while to decide which to choose... nice work peep's

Not my intention to worry you, Wendy. Not at all! Sorry 'bout that...

Yeah, I didn't mean the anonymity of the voters, but rather hiding the totals of "how many have voted for what to this date" thing.

From your answer I gather that we could have picked more than one? I didn't even think to try!

Well worth the waitSome really nice work there, and what a variety How can you pick just one?

And some of the timbers in the pallets, wow!
I can see a lot of forumites going dumpster digging nowThe WWF-DDers

All spectacular guys/girls, it is a shame we can only vote for one. Just goes to show, one of those discussions we had a while back about the cost of timber and who could or couldn't afford timber.
Fantastic work folks.

Excellent work everyone, Some really nice work there thats for sure

I found it extremely hard just to chose just one

Bloody brilliant the lot of you!
I'm going to need to come back to these lots of times before I vote,
as Skew said, how do you decide judging criteria?
best design?
finest crafts(wo)manship ?
most innovative?
most technically difficult?
aesthetics?
artistry?
etc etc

wow... Awesome work guys! Makes for a very hard choice. Gonna have to think on it for a bit and vote later...

Cheers,
Dave

congrats everyone.

what a great job you have all done.

especialy #1

Well done #10, great use of material and nicely executed. It looks like the battle will be for the minor placings...

12 people starting with the same basic materials, 12 very different results. Well done to all. Alas there can only be one

I've got my top 3 but I need more time to pick the winner.

Well done everyone.

It's early days yet, anything could happen between now and the closing time.

I still have voted yet but I would like to comment on a few pieces if that’s OK.

#1 – I don’t really like it but it is because I am not artistic enough to understand it. If you could find the right buyer, the price could go as high as $2,000,000.

#3 – They are 2 very simple objects but you can just tell that the maker is a good woodworker. The work is clean and tidy.

#5 – It must have driven you crazy cutting those pieces. It is interesting.

#6 – it could potentially be a great piece but the workmanship isn’t quite there yet. The top is not flat and the joints aren’t accurate. You next one will be better.

#8 – this stool looks well made. Well done to the maker.

#10 – a great looking lamp and I would love to have one in my house.

#12 – this person is a great wood carver. I am guessing that this one won’t get many votes here and it is very sad. Well done to the maker.
