Wood making competition - Lucky dip pile of wood

Aside from the labelled kitchen doors is this pile now rubbish/ lucky dip/ help yourself?

I believe so: there’s been plenty of warning.

Mostly we need to move it and make sure that area stays clear from now on.

Is this different wood? :confused:

Looks like the pile has grown?

It’s the same big wood…the white notice is slightly obscured by the top of the ladder and camera angle

The 4’ x 8’ board with paint stains is clearly the same one, but it looks like the pile has been added to with some more wood, MDF and a step ladder.

The purpose is of the notice and clearing the area wasn’t so that it could be repopulated again…esp with unlabeled wood.

I think apart of kitchen doors, it should all go.

I’ll ask costcutter builders monday if we can put the large sheets in their skip.

TBF the kitchen doors should probably also go somewhere else so they don’t act as a seed for another sheet wood accumulation…

Fair point.

If there are any with my name on, could you leave aside / snug? (I’m in Amerika so can’t do it myself) thanks!

Sure.

COMPETITION TIME

those thin sheets of ply will be put in the snug never to return.

So design and make something out of these sheets.

let your imagination go wild

rules
make what you want any size (if large please put in a storage request and make it a short project).
you can add your own materials or anything from the scrap pile but the ply has to be obvious that it has been used.)

all entries must be finished by the 30th September.

the entries will be judged by the woodtechs.

categories
Most inventive
best use of waste materials
most useful
best finished

I will put up a bottle of red wine as a starter prize … @directors is there a little something we could find in the budget, maybe a set of japanese saws, router plane …something woodie!

Woodtechs not allowed to enter but welcome to see if they can match the imagination, creativity and craftmanship of the members

Sorry about that. Down tonight for retro night, so will snug 'em safe and sound.

The snug is actually already very snug with misc wood. Worth having a look before piling more wood in there.

Could we maybe see if we could get an organisation to collect the wood we don’t want or need. I’m happy do some research.

Try these guys, Croydon based…maybe theyd be interested in collecting bigger offcuts on aregualr ansis, once every few weeks/months , when there’s enough to make the trip feasible.
