But does that oppose you to them in general? Most people don't need a workshop.

That's true but I virtually never call tradespeople to do work for me. I like to be as self sufficient as possible and I derive happiness from working with my hands. I'm in my workshop almost every day, repairing and creating. I love the feel of materials and the heft of hand tools, it's my happy place.

I mean sure, that's fair and I'm not saying you shouldn't, I'm just asking if you're against it in general for other people
