hell yes! I'm my case, I rode a dirt bike just next to the highway jumping overpasses, dodging trees and whatever else I needed to do to keep pace with the car without crashing

it looks great! thanks for sharing your experience with the half blind dovetails in plywood. do you think you would have gotten better results with better plywood? Baltic Birch?
crowded thread but since I teach at a university (adjunct professor) maybe I have a unique perspective.
people rarely say exactly what they mean. even when someone tries very hard to do so, it's easy to interpret what's said in different ways. so, it's probably worth giving a little grace when thinking about the professors intentions.
for myself, the feedback I give often comes from the perspective of helping the student to learn and grow. it's POSSIBLE you're professor was coming from a culture that puts a higher priority on dress than is typical in your culture. it's also POSSIBLE that he gave that feedback hoping it would give you insight on how to put your best foot forward in cultures that put greater emphasis on norms of dress. possibly.
finally, I know which students in my class aren't really trying. sit in the back, missing homework, skip class, don't participate, never ask for help, etc. i try to reserve my limited time and energy for the other students who are trying. in this case, a disgruntled student might get angry in response to that comment or gone to the department head to complain about him. if you're professor feels the same way I do (I realize that's a big 'if'), he wouldn't have said anything to you and wouldn't have risked that drain on his time and energy if he didn't think you were worth it.
when you do get around to making it, batch out a few. the ones I've made tend to get chewed up over time
it'll still look great. no one will care about it as much as you do
outstanding list!
weed probably end up with a small group of ultra wealthy controlling most of the world wealth
just finished the article - this one's worth the time to read!
HA! sick burn
I really shouldn't respond to this since I'm just rehashing up one of the stupidest arguments I've ever had. but, what you said is actually pretty close to what my position was. we parted ways when it came to the more distant cousins. I suggested a cool hundred K USD out to second cousins 'cause, after all, 300 million doesn't buy as much as it used to
but surprisingly, it didn't really matter because we didn't win the lottery. imagine that. /s.
My lesson learned was that arguing on principle isn't usually worth it
