This rings very true! This 1000%:
Once my wife learned of my plans, the requests for custom pieces started rolling in. Knowing that whatever I build has an eager recipient awaiting it is rocket fuel for motivation.
And since it's my wife asking for it, it's easier to justify buying the tools I "need".
I've grown my tool collection repeatedly this way :)
- moistly 4y agoGive home renovation a go. Endless tool purchases, all easily justified because hiring out the labour is so expensive!

- fest 4y agoExactly. Why purchase a new roof ventilator for 150EUR if you can spend 1000EUR for a small lathe and fix the ventilator that was broken?
