DELTA | PORTER-CABLE teamed up with FINE WOODWORKING on the Furniture Build-Off Contest. 

The challenge was to build a project that originated from 17 board feet of maple.  All wood, even inlay,

must be from original stock.  The maple could have been hard or soft, figured or not.  Finished pieces

may be stained or dyed.

Our first place winner was Chad Hill from Virginia. 

He won over $9,000 in DELTA and PORTER-CABLE products with his table design.
