I have noticed a lot of posts by people who make a living in numerous fields unrelated to woodworking (a lot of software and tech people). I was curious how many people who own the carvewright got into woodworking/sign making because of the CW vs. how many are true woodworkers who got a CW as another tool in the shop to enhance what they make?
I notice there are a lot of people with tech backgrounds who can do amazing things with the machine and really understand both the software and the inner workings of the CW (Digitalwoodshop [Al] would be a good example).
I, on the other hand, have been woodworking since about age 5 as a hobby and now as a living. The CW in my shop acts as just another tool among many. I don’t have even the slightest clue how the CW works deep down inside. To tell the truth I don’t have the time or the inclination to find out. I have to many other things I my plate with woodworking projects.
Are there other users out there like me, or are most users the tech savvy types who got into this because of the tech aspect?
