"CRAFTSMANSHIP is a relationship between the maker and the process of creation. It is not simply a set of skills one acquires, like the ability to read or drive a car. More than anything, craftsmanship is a matter of attitude...
"In this context, craftsmanship is first and foremost an expression of the human spirit.
"The artist is not concerned with the utility of the created object; the craftsman is. ...This care is implicit in every step...
"Craftsmanship is both attitude and skills."
from Woodworking Basics by Peter Korn

unsolicited testimonial: Hi Neal - Wow and how. It sure is looking nice... The tile looks great... Floor is great!! Vent is nice. I guess they sealed it good on the roof. I was so happy to hear that
there was good insulation up there in the attic. Shirley is thinking about a duel pack A/C & heater down the road after the kitchen is done if possible... Tell the guys though that thus far we are sure happy with it. Kind regards; Herb & Shirley
