I am super confused right now. I tried to be very careful in my wording to avoid being hyperbolic or all inclusive. Am I giving that impression at all?
Eh, I dunno. I don't take issue with your reply. I suspect some people might read "from a fine woodworking perspective" as snobbery or a no-true-Scotsman that I'm not seeing?
From my standpoint as a woodworker, everybody's money's equally green and if somebody wants a piece stained something garish, it doesn't cost me any more than if they want it in a natural color. Although, as a mentor of mine once said: "You don't have to sign everything you build".
I'll let you know if that perspective changes if I ever have so much work coming in that I have to turn jobs down :-)
