Overview

We’re pleased to announce the first-ever Outdoor Structures Contest! A structure is defined as something (a building, shed, greenhouse, etc) that is built by putting parts together and that usually stands on its own. Your structure can either be a portable or permanent fixture as long as it’s made for the outdoors.

Prizes include a Makita cordless 7-piece combo kit, Alite Design battery pack, Kreg pocket hole jig system and more. There’s a lot you can do with this theme, and we’re excited to see where you take it!
