Default Isn't relying of someone else's plans kinda like painting bypaintby numbers?

Rico,

you are absolutely right on. Everyone has his (or her) special reason
for indulging in this hobby. One of my reasons is that it's fun to
fabricate things. That's why I especially like working on the router
table. The flip side is I get bored if I have to make too many of the
same things. I'm not yet into Neandering, but I might dabble in it
later on. I don't have any Neander tools yet, unless you count one very
lousy Crapsman chisel I picked up over 25 years ago.

I use Excel to help with measurements related to dados and rabbets. I
don't own a CADD program, but I can imagine how helpful that must be.

The important thing is the the individual hobbyist is doing
what they want and getting satisfaction out of it.
