The Brief

What you'd be taking on

Assembled, ready-to-use furniture for a woodworking studio, delivered as a real RogueBoard project. A woodworking studio needs this because new furniture is sitting unassembled.

The Programme

Six phases, brief to handover

Every RogueBoard project runs the same six phases. Each one below carries the part of the brief it owns.

The task-by-task breakdown is written with the team when the project starts and opens in the workspace on day one. What's below is the brief as it stands today.

Discovery

What you need coming in

  • Beginner-friendly
  • Able to attend on-site sessions

FAQs

Common questions

Is this project paid?

No — RogueBoard projects are unpaid. What you earn is real experience, portfolio evidence, and a verified reference.

Can beginners join?

Depends on the role — check the Difficulty rating and each role's required skills above. Several roles on this project are beginner-friendly.

What if I miss a meeting?

Let your Project Lead know in advance where possible. One missed check-in won't remove you from the team, but consistent attendance is expected.

Can I leave early?

You can step back from a project, but try to hand off your work cleanly so the team and the credential process aren't disrupted.

Will I receive a reference?

Yes — completing your role to the agreed standard earns a verified RogueBoard credential and a reference you can point employers or clients to.
