Thinking of taking up woodworking...

Well you look as if you will fit in just fine. Note your inability to string two more than sentences together. And I _know_ heaps of WWer's who can spel kidding two....

OK. Maybe you are serious. Not being a very good woodworker, I am (still, just) willing to listen.

So, seriously. If you come in here with an attitude like yours, to a group of _woodworkers_, then maybe your "anti-social" image is self-funded? Try approaching in a postive manner. Read the posts for a while and decide for yourself. If you want to ask woodworking questions, ask woodworking questions.

I will say that if you are looking for a chat, amongst serious woodworkers, walk away. They are busy avoiding getting hurt while woodworking.

I'm also trying to get into wood working, I've been an autocad drafter for 15 years but I've never been able to assemble anything I've drawn with any accuracy. Now I'm getting away from the computer and trying to learn something new and so far very fun and interesting.

Nor does your table saw "phone home" to verify that you have a legally licensed copy of the Delta Unisaw or to check for updates that wind up breaking half of the saw's features.

Frank Lloyd Wright, architect, did receive some angry calls from a number of his distinguished clients when the elegant, astounding, and far ahead of the technology roofs on his buildings began leaking onto their dinner parties. I wonder if this falls into this category. I have received angry comments from family members when recently installed towel bars suddenly and explosively disconnect from incorrectly installed framing members.

On the other hand, even M$oft don't use the error message

"Your table saw has perfomed an illegal operation. Click OK to slam a plastic block into the spinning blade and destroy the processor"
