Couldn't agree more. I'm a developer by trade, the skills of breaking down a problem into manageable chunks and coming up with a gameplan to get it done are directly transferrable over to woodworking. Woodworking is all about problem solving, coming up with a plan, and then very carefully executing that plan. I also really enjoy the fact that you're making something with your hands. With economies as advanced as they are today, many of us have lost touch with what it's like to create something with your hands, that you can touch and use. It's hard to explain, but it's extremely satisfying.
