I like to think of myself as well-informed on wood working and finishing, but I have, on numerous occasions, learn something new from the general postings. In particular, to our good friend Ray, from down under, keep it up!

I of course will not do the repairs myself, but I like being aware of what it takes to have the job done correctly and the tools/supplies are all visual products but least I will know if I'm getting a good deal on the job rather than being in the dark and having to go alone with whatever is suggested at the time when it could be a less expensive way for me.. I appreciate the wealth of info that is provided on this list many many things I never knew of. So as far as I'm concerned I think this list is well worth the efforts all is put forth into and the researching of said products weather blind or sighted do it is irrelevant..
