OK, I finally understand my troubled relationship with woodworking. Seems like I take great pleasure from designing things to make from wood, and enjoy using / showing off the finished product, but the bit in between (the "making sawdust" part) doesn't seem to do much for me.
Nevertheless, I just finished unloading a large carload of lumber (it's amazing what you can fit in the back of a Dodge Magnum) so I'll either be proudly posting pictures of workbenches and outdoor furniture over the next few weeks or you'll simply never see me in this thread again
