Welcome to Wood Talk, for Woodworkers by Woodworkers.

Now here are three guys who, if combined, would make one hell of a woodworker.

Mark, Matt, and Shadden.

All right, it's Wood Talk number 237 for April 24, 2015,

and it's a weekend edition of Wood Talk.

And that means we're talking about one single topic. And that's a weekend edition of Wood Talk and that means we're talking about one single topic

and that topic is a suggestion from Woodman 501.

It's about, well, he wants to know

what kind of consideration we give to techniques, materials, tools, and how that impacts our projects.

So he says, listening to several podcasts lately, the topic of selecting projects, be they commissions,

guild builds, or family requests, brings forth the opportunity to test skills and techniques.

My question is this. When considering projects, how much does the techniques require the materials

and a tool requirements influence your interest in tackling the project.

So is this even something that comes into your thought process?

I mean obviously tools, right?

If you don't have a particular tool, it might make it a little difficult

to even bother thinking about doing that particular project. That kind of probably goes

without saying across the board. technique wise... No.

Not anymore.

Well, explain what you mean.

What do you mean?

Like nothing into it.
