]]> Hi makers, it’s been almost a month since the announcement of our 5th Snapmaking Contest. The results are finally out! Let’s take a look at our community’s creation!

From over 100 entries, 4 winners were picked by the community and Snapmaker staff members.

Below is what the Snapmaker staff had to say about this contest: 

“We were very surprised by many of the creative and practical contest entries. It’s the first time that we run the marathon contest beyond the Facebook group since we realize that we need a place to involve all excellent Snapmaker users in. This is a stage for all of you, to show your talent, please stay tuned and waiting for the next round of Snapmaking Contest!”

Grand Prize

Congratulations to the following participants who won the grand prize, a Snapmaker 2.0 Rotary Module.
