The thing that draws me to woodworking, as a software engineer, is that it resembles many aspects of software, but has a wonderful imperfection inherent to it.

The more skilled at woodworking I become, the more I learn that every piece of wood is unique, and does not care about systems and methods. The grain will happily explode in your face if you try to work with it the wrong way. =)

It all makes me appreciate the physical aspects of things much more.
