Is it wrong to always be thinking of your current and next projects? And I mean, work,gym, home, outing ect. Nothing on my mind but working on my projects, I think I'm a timber addict :C

G'Day Mark,
Shed time working with timber making things is purer relaxation and enjoyment as all the cares of life fade and or disappear....
While family, work and the other demands of the day to day are important your can't beat shed time...
Enjoy your woodwork projects whatever they are...
Cheers, crowie
welcome aboard
It is a little hard to say. My work has a policy of work, life balance but that does not always work out to be that way. Sometimes we need to spend more time relaxing and yes sometimes we need to work really hard. The balance is what we should strive for.
For future reference you could have posted this in wood work general sub-forum.
That's how I work all the time especially on more complex projects which are these days mainly in metal.Quote:

Visualising pieces/joints and stuff from different and especially invisible angles identifies what might not line up or what might clash with what.
I do a lot of the maths side of the project in my head as well and it gets to the point where I have basically memorised all the key measurements by the time the project is complete.
