Nominations are open for this week’s Project of the Week (PotW) and Community Gardener (CG) awards. You can nominate simply by replying to this thread. Self-nominations are allowed. The selected project will be highlighted in the Maslow newsletter. The user will receive a “Project of the Week” or “Community Gardener” badge on the forums, a prize from Bar and Hannah, and a year’s supply of extra characters you can insert into your posts to reach the Discourse 20 character minimum 🙂. The approximate weekly schedule is: nominations close no earlier than Saturday, voting Sunday & Monday, announcement Tuesday. After nominations from the community have been made, I’ll post a poll for the community to pick a winner. If we don’t get enough nominations, I will randomly select projects from previous weeks’ nominations, the back issues of the Maslow newsletter, Made on Maslow, and of course the Community Garden website to appear in a poll of at least three projects. Projects that don’t win in a poll can be renominated on subsequent weeks. Any project can only win once, but any person can win multiple times. What makes a PotW? It can be a project made on a Maslow CNC that shows off the Maslow’s capabilities, or demonstrates a new way of using the Maslow, or just plain looks cool. There is also a Maslow Community Contributor of the Week for great contributions to the Maslow community, which is run by TheRiflesSpiral; nominations which better fit that award will be forwarded to him. What makes a Community Gardener? It can be anyone who creates or contributes to a project on the Community Garden website ([http://maslowcommunitygarden.org/](http://maslowcommunitygarden.org/)). By posting to the CG, you make the project available to the community and you create the opportunity for other users to improve on your design. Final note: like most things here on the forums, the community is what makes PotW/CG successful. Suggestions for improving the PotW/CG and volunteers to help run the thread are always welcome. ---

I’m going to nominate ScrumdyBum’s ([Iowa Cutout Test](https://forums.maslowcnc.com/t/iowa-cutout-test/3151?u=jwolter)) for PotW. Not because it’s a super impressive piece of work, but because ScrumdyBum posted it even though it was just a test. I really love seeing user’s first projects. Who wants to nominate something else? ---

This week’s polls ended with three winners. For PotW, Jcourrier’s Elegant sign won elegantly. For CG it was a tie between Open Crutch and A Simple Nightstand. Great work, all! ---
