... For some,
so many years have elapsed since pride was a part of workmanship that it's a
relatively unknown commodity anymore. How do we expect anyone to learn a
craft properly when the mentors don't know the trade, either? It can be
hard to get things square and plumb when you try. Imagine what you get when
you don't care!

Just remember Harold that things maybe weren't as great as all that.

My house was built in the late 1800s, and yes it has rough-cut
lumber in it, it's solid, but there's not a right angle in it
and if you look close at the workmanship it's strictly so-so.

They made up for the fact that they put it up in a day, by using
oversize parts. I truly believe that this was a 'knock it
together' kind of dwelling.
