I thought I should also add: One of the worse group of Words any maker can here is,
" All You Gotta To Do"
ha ha...it is never as simple as what it might seem. What may look outwardly as a simply task...a simple extra, will often involve a new untested technique. Thus time and experimentation added. Plus it often will involve the building of a new jig to be able to accomplish that seemingly simple task.
With that being said. I was once told by a dear friend of mine, that listening to the clients wants and ideas made him reach out and learn. And ultimately made his product better. Ha ha...probably should have not mentioned this. It is a fine line a maker walks between growing and learning and doing what is right for his product & client. While listening to new ideas is great, the maker most often needs to firmly guide his client.
