Woodworking YouTube. “Build a table for $100”: Proceeds to take $100 worth of wood and a $5k table saw, $1k planer, $3k jointer, $2k band saw and hundreds of dollars worth of clamps to build said table.

@paul Meanwhile 3D printing bros be like "hahaha... wait... do you understand that it's TOTALLY different? Yes my setup cost a lot of money, energy and time to produce relatively small plastic only objects but 3D printing is the FUTURE!"

@paul You forgot the domino/biscuit joiner as well as the hundreds (or likely thousands) of hours of practice and developing skills to have a finished product that looks good.

And finishes are freaking expensive too.

Still, I love these videos, and I love putting my best effort into turning a pile of wood into something cool.

I imagine developers get a similar feeling.

@jdechko surprisingly the one I was snarking about did not use a Festool. About the only fancy ass tool the guy didn't use.
