It’s super cool and all, but also kind of ominous? I feel like something more inviting might be a better fit.

    There was a contest for project submissions to be chosen as the sublemmy photo that took place in October. Hence the coffin. I reckon it was supposed to be a semi regular contest but ya know… Life.

    You could make a post calling for a new contest, I think that would be cool. I was meaning to participate in the next one anyway.

        Hey I’m the moderator and yes that’s exactly what happened. It was an “autumn theme” woodworking contest. I was just thinking that it would be great to do another contest. Would you like to pick a theme? Could be something like “make a tissue box” or “make something Christmas themed”.

          Not that I’m against the seasonal theme or anything, but could the theme just be focused around what the new thumbnail picture should be?

          Maybe ‘build one of your favorite things that represents woodworking and the best one with the most votes gets to be the new thumbnail picture.’ Or something like that 🤷‍♂️

          Well, it’s summer.

          So it’d be picket fence, decks and patios, planter boxes, Adirondack chairs…

      Thank you yes that’s exactly what happened. Sorry it’s been so long. Let’s have another friendly woodworking contest! Then we can replace the spooky coffin 😁
