The 27 year old had placed in the last three years of the competition so this year he was determined to get his hands on the National Title:<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;I have previously competed in the Craftmanship over the last 3 years placing 2nd twice and 3rd once! When SAYFC released the task of creating a rocking toy this year I thought I would pull out all of the stops to get the red ticket!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>After a bit of head scratching I decided to make a rocking toy digger. It was mainly made from steel with the seat being made out of wood. I worked on the digger a few nights a week over 2 months with it being the most complicated Craftmanship entry I have done to date. I finally finished it 1 day before the competition entry deadline.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>It felt fantastic to finally win the competition after coming so close in the previous years.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I would also like to encourage all SAYFC members to take part in the Craftmanship competition. It\u2019s a great way to showcase members fabrication and design skills off&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Well done to everyone who competed, it was a very strong year of competition with some wonderfully crafted and creative entries throughout.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_18416\" style=\"width: 250px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18416\" class=\"wp-image-18416 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sayfc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/07\/Craftmanship-1st-entry-small-240x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sayfc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/07\/Craftmanship-1st-entry-small-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.sayfc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/07\/Craftmanship-1st-entry-small-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sayfc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/07\/Craftmanship-1st-entry-small-700x875.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.sayfc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/07\/Craftmanship-1st-entry-small-600x750.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.sayfc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/07\/Craftmanship-1st-entry-small.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-18416\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Andrew&#8217;s winning design<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Final Results<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Junior:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1<sup>st<\/sup> \u2013 Grant Dickie, Crossroads<\/p>\n<p>2<sup>nd<\/sup> \u2013 Greg Bain, Callander<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Senior:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1<sup>st<\/sup> \u2013 Andrew Beattie, Forfar<\/p>\n<p>2<sup>nd<\/sup> \u00a0&#8211; Ellen Glennie, Vale Of Alford<\/p>\n<p>3<sup>rd<\/sup> \u2013 Lisa Dunbar, Avondale<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Andrew Beattie of Forfar won this year&#8217;s National Craftmanship Competition with his spectacular Rocking Toy Digger.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":63,"featured_media":18293,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"venue":[],"class_list":["post-18415","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 -
