Episode 22 - Are FIGURED WOODS a GIMMICK?

Woodworking is BULLSHIT!

We've all seen them, pieces of furniture or woodworking where someone throws all these random ass pieces of contrasting figured woods together, thinking that by using figured woods, their piece will look better, or fancy, or valuable. When in reality, it often looks gaudy and disjointed, and a bit confused. IS USING FIGURED WOODS A GIMMICK? Join a spirited debate on how we see the tasteful use of figured woods, but how this simple question speaks to a MUCH LARGER design question of HUGE IMPORTANCE. We also cover how figured woods develop in trees and what the scientific research says about their occurrence.
