I do metal, but it's largely the same. maybe more tool building.
the main thing that's missing here is that you _actually get to finish something_ without getting bogged down in politics and bikeshedding.
you can actually talk to your users and find out what's important to them. no one is going to show up in your shop with a 30 in 1 multitool and say 'you have to use this' instead of the plane you know is going to do the right job.
