Just Pallet Wood

From workhorse to cast-off: this is often the life of the common pallet - but not when it ends up in the hands of a woodworker! A woodworker transforms "just pallet wood" into something beautiful and/or useful! Be the change. Find an old pallet and work your magic!

CURVE-aliciousness

Woodworking is “CURVE-alicious” and the curvier the better .. well, at least for this Awards event it is! Take some wood, any type of wood, any amount of wood, and curve it up into something practical, artsy, practical-artsy, or artsy-practical. Let us know what your inspiration was and how you created the curves. Did you cut it? Carve it? Bend it? Sand it? Or ...? (A blog-like "how to" would be a great addition to your Awards entry: inquiring minds want to know!)
