Hello,

Not to be flip about your point, that's an interesting question but it makes certain assumptions about what it is your after doesn't it? Knowing you followed the Poland project I wonder what you thought about Mikkel Johansen's ideas about leaving a bit of space in the work for the human element, following on from what David Pye writes about as "workmanship of risk", not to mention Soetsu Yanagi? Having read over his statement a few times, and what Tim O’Brien had to say in rebuttal there, I find my approach has more in common with Johansen's.

But, ok, in more direct response, and in all seriousness, I guess the situation would account for a lot.

Greetings,

I agree 100% with what Mikkel Johansen said. One can be accurate, quick, and efficient.

This topic relates to the recent query on efficient joinery decisions.

Hello,

I misread that thinking it was an existing situation where the brace must go. Excuses.
But I would hook the tendons also because hanging it by the tail, you could pull it off.
