I used to build a lot of furniture, including pro audio speaker prototypes -- until it became my job. It took all the fun out of it.

Yeah, I've been meaning to pick up a couple of cards to try it out. How to they work out vs a plane set up for smoothing?

That was my experience with programming. It was great fun when I was in school and could do creative things with it, but I wisely avoided the opportunity to do it for a living. I would've hated it.

@WhyFi it's easier to set up than a plane. A rectangular card with a stone flattened edge, then burnished with a hard steel rod to raise an edge. Clamp the work, grab the card with both hands, flex it slightly in the middle with thumbs, and the push along the work like a little bulldozer. You'll make very thin whispy shavings and after a while, sore thumbs.

Who is Keen, and why is his cab significant?

I am so missing the point here. I barely have any idea what SPD means; I think it is a type of pedal. I don't know what an SPD sandal is. I don't know what sandals have to do with cabs. I don't know what Keen has to do with sandals. I don't know what recumbents have to do with sandals or cabs. And this Keen guy is a total mystery to me.

Ya know, that is really a cop out. Man makes an obscure joke, he should be willing to explain it. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
