Carpentry was unexpected :) I remember helping my dad when he built additional rooms for our house when I was a kid, and I've done a few fixes to furnitue like making holes for electrical cords, so I can see the fun in it. |
i picked it up about 2 years ago so i'm not to the point where i can build rooms yet (live in a condo so i'm not sure i could even if i had the skills). so far i've limited myself to non-essential furniture where my flaws don't matter quite so much. getting better but the one place i'm really quite terrible -- staining wood. for the life of me i can't seem to get an even finish. good thing my wife like the "vintage", "worn-in" look. :P
it's fun and when you're done you have something to show off. i like that custom furniture fits my place perfectly too.
