Can we talk about how a visit to a Japanese joinery museum messed with my head?
Idk, after seeing those hand-cut joints, my usual dowel and glue methods feel kinda cheap now.

That Kyoto museum made my pocket screws feel like cheating.

That museum is a real humbling experience, isn't it? Seeing those perfect joints cut by hand centuries ago. The wood fits together so tight you can't even see the lines. It's like watching a master chef cook when you can barely scramble eggs. Totally get why it would make any modern shortcut feel a bit lame.

My friend saw those joints in person... he sold his nail gun the next day and started saving for proper chisels.
