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, tungsten carbide goodness from our friends @MakerMadeCNC and a special preview of the new Maslow PotW polling predictions at [https://fivethirtyeight.com](https://fivethirtyeight.com).

The approximate weekly schedule is: nominations open right after the previous week’s poll posts, nominations close no earlier than Saturday, voting Sunday through Wednesday, polls close automatically on Wednesday. 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. 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 (old or new) 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. Vote however you like, but I hope to encourage collaborative projects.

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 love how this project demonstrates some of the artistic possibilities with the Maslow.

> Here is my first big project made with the Maslow (not perfectly calibrated, but enough for this project). It took about 2 hours every three ribs, so more than 16 hours were spent cutting (I made many mistakes, but I learned a lot). After that, sanding (quite a lot), painting, electricity, assembling, … I’m quite happy with the result. I waited quite a long time to have my living room decorated, but now it’s done thanks to my Maslow CNC. Hope to keep making more projects, but I need to improv…

Tight races this week, but Cbolt360’s Wife’s Name Plaque and the Maslow Tablet Holder managed to squeak out victories. Congratulations, all!
