TORONTO, Oct. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Metal Supermarkets, the world's largest supplier of small-quantity metals, today announced the start of its 11^th annual Metal My Way competition.

Previous month-long Metal My Way competitions have received over 1,000 submissions. Projects have ranged from small engine models, car restorations and commissioned art to large-scale renovation and construction projects. Metalworking enthusiasts have also submitted exceptional works of art including a polished stainless steel eagle, a metallic blue heron and a handcrafted "Wheel of Time" dagger.

"Every year, we've amazed by the talent, ingenuity and craftsmanship of metal projects that are submitted by people who transform metal into extraordinary creations and works of art."

Now called Metal My Way: Everyday, the competition will begin on October 1st, 2025 and run until September 30th, 2026. Contestants are encouraged to submit photos and videos of their completed metal projects throughout the year on metalmyway.com.

Additionally, special prizes will be awarded throughout the year for other standout projects. These prizes may include metalworking tools and equipment, gift cards and discounts on purchases made from metalsupermarkets.com.

Winners will be selected by a committee consisting of Metal Supermarkets corporate staff.
