Oh Man woodworking powered or hand tools, that's a Forum unto itself.
Old things are still old, but there's a feel to a well built thing, it's not just materials it's the thought and attention to design, detail, function and then there's those moments you find the art, craftsmanship, soul. Like porn's famous quote "I know it when I see it", you do the same when you see or touch something made with these qualities.
That to me is the sublime.
