That's true. It's with music the same I guess. If you're interested and somewhat talented, which makes it easier, you will be a musician.
However I don't have a place to do it anyway. But I'll keep it in mind, getting a big empty garage would meant life for me. To cut off those piano playing fingers👀😆
If you lack space, maybe try and embrace traditional woodworking with only handtools.
Pro:
- 1/10th of the noise
- 1/100th of the cost
- bunch of skills to acquire but much more rewarding
- you'll only need a place for a bench and a wall to hang your tools (3 saws, 3-4 planes, 3-4 chisels, a mallet, couple of sharpening stones, a drill and some specialty small hand tools)
Cons
- workflow is slower, but if you're not doing for money, the process is the reward itself.
Ps. Check out n/woodworking here on nostr, I made a small community and it'd be cool to have more people contributing.

Interesting, thanks! I bought myself chisels some years ago, but hid them when kids were born. We live in an apartment, and given I started with sewing, knitting, crossstitch etc (2 machines and other stuff) and sometimes do massages for money (table, hot stones, chinese cups and other stuff) and music (piano, guitar, mic stand and other stuff), I'm pretty sure my husband would kill me if I brought in a saw.😂
That is awesome. Make your place yours!!!!
Damn 😂😂 yeah woodworking equipment doesn't rhyme with kids very well. There are people bringing their kids to their shops, but I wouldn't trust them one bit around a razor sharp chisel or plane 🤔
I constantly cut myself, can't imagine a kid 😅😂
There are little gloves, but you can't let a toddler around. My son is now 6 and I think we could start. I wanted to start soap carving with them both, but can't come up with chisely thing safe and yet effective enough.🤔
Goat mom! Everything is cool if it takes the kids away from screens.
I can't seem to find that community how does that work? I never joined any, and on Amethyst can't find it within communities.
Communities are still a nebulous features within Nostr. Aside for a few large groups, not many participate.
To be honest I'm not that active either 😅
Here's the link to the woodworking one.
