Judges' choice
Register at the "Table Mountain Stuff Shack".

* This category will be judged on Friday night. If the weather does not permit good viewing, judges will eliminate this category for that year.

** This category is not open to professional machinists, cabinetmakers, or other professional trades people.

Two or more entries must be made into a category before an award will be given. Judges have been known to alter or even create new categories at their discretion.....
