One of the (few) long-lasting benefits of having a secondary modern school education was being taught woodworking and metalwork skills.
My grandfather had a shed devoted to such undertakings, even including a lathe!
As time went on I moved into more academic fields, graduating in the 70's in Computer Science, and then a life in offices of various sorts.
But I always kept a toolbox, that kept getting bigger - as every new task needs at least one new tool! Then eventually we had property, and then I had a shed that eventually became a workshop I could fill with tools!
Over the years I've acquired a few power tools, a drill, a sander, and something that cuts wood a bit faster than a handsaw; but I still reach for the hand drill, sanding block and the saw more often than not.
Why?
It's the satisfaction of still being able to follow a pencil line (drawn with a woodworking-square, across a piece of wood) with a handsaw and get it pretty well right.
Then, sand the edges.
Then, fix it to something else with nails or screws.
And then end up with this.
I put it one a wall of the house and a blue tip moved in within days.
Job satisfaction!
Then I did a feeder.
