@ChaplinTokyo@social.vivaldi.net sounds crazy but gluing wood also has quite a zen to it. making large pieces from smaller ones. Maybe similar to blacksmithing with wood. You have to understand the properties of the material, it's grain and inner tension. Wood is an interesting medium.

@ChaplinTokyo@social.vivaldi.net oh that's great. I love that type of project. I don't have a picture of it now, but I made a stool inspired by the classic onsen stool. I also like to make monitor stands for computer monitors so that I can look straight ahead when using a computer instead of bending my neck looking down. Those too are similar to this onsen design. That humble stool has been a useful concept for many things.

@ChaplinTokyo@social.vivaldi.net Allen screws have trouble with high torques that you encounter in wood porjects too. Allen is a better fastener for precision machines than it is for wood.If you are going to a co-op that has electric drills for driving screws, these are nice too. Making a pilot hole for the screw will prevent the wood from splitting when the screw is driven in. More important with hard woods than with pine, but it will make the project look cleaner and more professional no matter the wood type.

@ChaplinTokyo@social.vivaldi.net Co-ops and clubs are a good solution to woodworking's space & equipment problems. It's an expensive hobby.

@ChaplinTokyo@social.vivaldi.net You might want to consider Robertson style screws for wood projects. Quite common in the USA/Canada. Invented by a Canadian a long time ago who didn't want to pay patent royalties for the Phillips head design. Commonly used in wood projects for a few reasons- screws used in wood tend to be long and require a lot of twisting. The square shape of a Robertson head is a simple strong shape that is not as prone to skipping as a Phillips.

@ChaplinTokyo@social.vivaldi.net if you are learning or inexperienced it helps to slow down with those Japanese type saws. I actually like them a lot. I own a few, but they have a different feel and technique from the western type saws.

@ChaplinTokyo@social.vivaldi.net these also require more skill than western style saws, although that is not obvious at first glance.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social farmers are still penny pinching money grubbing SOB's who refuse to pay a living wage & gladly accept illegals working for cash instead of improving the working conditions & pay in their industries. So, in a nutshell the same mentality as dot commers. most farm states are culturally red, but blue as fuck when you bring up cutting the AG subsidies. Another economic sector that needs a house cleaning from top to bottom. business as usual hasn't worked in a long time.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social like reality TV.. a situation and circumstances that are set in advance and controlled & manipulated by the show's producers elicits certain behaviors from the contestants who are already pre-screened for a certain personality type. Not so different than the way corporations hire and what stockholders expect from "contestants". Mental illness and the people who are promoted and praised for exhibiting it themselves exist within a larger millieu.

@VeroniqueB99@mastodon.social for about 30 years we've had a bizarre obsession with these types.. But their appearance in the Epstein files says about all there is to say about them, in my mind. The investor class loves them and looks the other way when faced with their misdeeds, so long as they make a profit. There is also a minor cult of celebrity present as well.
