How to enter
Beginning January 9, the 2023 YoungWoodPro Contest will be open for entries. The contest extends to March 10.
During that time young woodworking professionals are encouraged to post a picture of their woodworking project along with a brief description on Instagram, Twitter, or at Woodworking Network’s Facebook page using the hashtag #YoungWoodPro. When posting on Twitter or Instagram, be sure to also mention @WoodworkingBiz (Twitter) or @WoodworkingNetwork (Instagram). Alternatively, you can enter directly with an online form.
Entries are limited to one per person, and entrants must be between the ages of 18-35, (by year’s end 2023) and be a professional woodworker. Judging of your project is based on the photo you post so good photography is essential.

Due to the wide range of the submitted projects and their applications (i.e., functional, decorative - furniture, boat, artwork, etc.), judging consideration will be given to:
- Overall look/presentation of the project
- Complexity of construction and design
