My family’s history and story is of great concern to, so much so that I intend to reconstruct the family tree as far as I can get in order to know who came before me.
In this same sense, I put a lot a value into objects that have reached through the generations. I have china, some furniture, personal items, photos and photo albums, etc.
Everything tells a piece of a story I wasn’t able to fully live through and instead just brushed me growing up.
It gives me a sense of belonging.
When I talk about particle board it’s much more of the sawdust glued together stuff that’s super cheap but doesn’t last too long.
I wish you great luck in your endeavors with wood working. It sounds like a lot of learning but is a very functional skill to have.
I understood it has such. That is the kind of crap furniture that keeps people hostage and degrades their quality of life.
Thank you for your kind words and I wish you the best as well.
