Winter 2008 2x4 contest rules

I tend to agree with you but there is no official interpretation on that specific point (although it has been debated extensively). It seems that the consensus is that it is up to your interpretation and it is up to you to explain/defend your reasoning, especially since WE lumberjocks are the only judges (of each other).

So go with your instincts, whatever they are. If it is not obvious, you may want to explain your methodology when you post your results.

At least that’s how I see it.

There has been some discussion here about this and over here and also over here

Not trying to be a smart alec, just wanted you to see all the discussion/comments.

haha I find it interesting, actually… trying to “think” like everyone, figuring out their perspective. I have it boiled down to “measure twice; cut once” ... wanting to get it right before starting the project.

My goal after the “no glue” event was to write the descriptions so that there was no confusion. I didn’t achieve it this time but I’m already motivated for the next challenge. Maybe then I’ll get it written correctly :)
