In response to Mosey #20, I agree with you about "Zen"
My Grandad was an excellent cabinet-maker, though sadly I learned little from him. But for some years now, when I'm careless in my woodwork, I can "feel" Pop looking over my shoulder and admonishing me to "do it right." And if I do, there is a great satisfaction to knowing I have! A higher state, perhaps.
