Underneath the deckBut who are the Makers Challenge people, and what do they do? It all started with a challenge among friends in 2016, known as the “IG Builders Challenge.” This event brought the woodworking and DIY community together to build the same piece of furniture with their own unique spin on it. Fast-forward to today, and “The Builders Challenge” has become one of the largest woodworking and furniture-making competitions on the web. The challenge has now spawned multiple contests throughout the year, from Furniture Flipping to Epoxy and Resin-based challenges that run year-round.
The Makers All-Star Challenge team has taken on the latest project with an absolute blitz of creativity and innovation, all filmed and completed over several days. And the best part? The team explains how you can take on this project in your own space, with a final reveal designed in the pages of Do It Yourself magazine.
