Luddite.
iām talking about furniture, not bank vaults.
canadian
A kitchen cupboard, a desk with drawers and a front door are not bank vaults.
what are you hiding in your kitchen?
i build slidy things with a router
and great attention
a front door isnāt furniture
canadians arenāt famous for their clarity of thought
Canadians are generally obese tattooed drug addicted freaks of dubious hygiene, like Americans.
You didnāt specify furniture. You just said āi donāt approve of putting metal together with wood
metal is of the devilā.
Drawers that slide wood-on-wood are not as silky smooth as metal with rollers.
Same for kitchen cupboards that open with hinges.
There is a certain irony about a guy typing on a computer connected to the internet about how metal shouldnāt be used in woodworking.
I like fully mechanical skeleton watches which are less accurate and far more costly than quartz watches so I sympathize somewhat.
i have furniture wax
you are a heathen
plus, you thought i thought 2x4s would make adequate siding for a bank vault
canadians aināt famous for much
i went out to the garage and smoked a never you mind
it helped me see why we have a misunderstanding
you think furniture is the nail you hang your blow dryer on in the shower
i think furniture is something you put in your home
that you use
I never mentioned furniture in this conversation. I do admire functional woodwork like desks, shelves, cabinets, doors and drawers more than I admire solely decorative woodwork.
I will admit this bit of heresy. I bought a laminate desk 7 years ago. It honestly still looks new. I mean like indistinguishable from the day I bought it, even though I sat at it almost every day I was in Canada over those 7 years. There is an appeal to that. It isnāt as beautiful as it would be if it was hardwood, but if it was hardwood it wouldnāt look new after 7 years of daily use.
i saw the picture of the white office desk in your home
i thought it looked VERY nice
but you have forced me to take the position that itās momma was fat
also wood should not be painted
paint is of the devil

I did some woodwork today and I mastered a full length saw stroke with the longest hand saw I have. The cuts were much smoother at the end then the normal splintering. I drew the saw past itās full base and end and still kept it in the kerf without binding.
But this was a secret workout too. See despite my bulk mass I have more points of articulation than most, and I did more than just tug strings like a puppet. I was literally cutting the wood by use of a single buttocks or hip flexor muscle at a time. I cut like I was cutting my own ribs out of a box with torso rotation.
I basically cut myself out of carpenters stocks.
I didnāt use my shoulders and arms for movement.
Much.
Wow Billy you must have a Lantern Corps ring too! Good thing Iām not collecting any! How do you ever pay off those holographic representations of wood craftsmanship?
Iām thinking of making a large table thatās stronger than steelā¦from spider silk. But I donāt want people thinking I pick my rear.
Seriously good hand workout. I wore disposable gloves and a face mask for sawdust and protective glasses. Itās cold and my hands have locked up painfully at least a dozen times each. But surprising results, they feel like steel.
Funny, Iāve been thinking that for some time now and never mentioned it. Seeing the pic of your hand confirms it. That hand shape is only gotten by picking ones rear. Are you a Rear Admiral Mark?

Hello yourself.
Iāve got a picture of a desk maker
Youāve been creeping. Iām impressed by your commitment to contradict me. Good luck with that, Creep.
My previous reference to IKEA doesnāt make my present post contradictory. Figure it out!
Iām not selling anything but if I were, I can tell youāll buy anything.
Thatās not all Iāve got. Iāll run fetch the homework assignment I just finished. Brbā¦
