Its time again to have a contest so lets see how many of you are interested.

The rules are simple .It has to be your own design so please dont copy from the Net cos Mango and I know whats there so use your imagination.

The choice of timber is yours ,It can be a combo piece with no more than two timbers,no fasteners or paintwork allowed.It can be floor standing or wall mounted,the choice is yours.
You will have (six weeks) to achieve this.We will require two constructions pics of the bookcase and one with the finish on.We will give more details once we see the responses.

We will tell you who are the judges later.


Have Fun
Francois

are the judges from the local retirement home?.... they seem to be moving slowly. Perhaps they need some Ensure or Fiberone to give them some energy! need to get moving on getting the results already...

impatiently waiting :D :wink:


Jeremy :D
