As I raced home from work to finish spraying a table top not stopping for tea(or maybe to get half high :eek: ) I wondered if I was addicted to woodworking -I'll rephrase that wondered how addicted I was...........

so here's the question what is more addictive
a) woodworking
b)nicotine
c)caffiene
d)sex
e)any combination of the above

Nicotine and caffeine are aquired habits and the hardest to break; caffeine is the only thing I can't kick. Woodworking and sex are as natural as breathing, they're not vices and I don't have a problem. Shut-up, I do not.

Caffiene isnt addictive It just taste's good, and Im a shiftworker!
I gave up the stinky habit about 4yrs ago, I thought it was going to be hard... lucky the SWMBO was on a tour of europe for 2mths while I did it!
I use those Zyban tablets and found it quite easy, even when OP smoked infront of me.

...I gave up the stinky habit about 4yrs ago,...I use those Zyban tablets and found it quite easy, even when OP smoked infront of me.Good on ya, I went cold turkey about 24 years ago.
I've heard good & bad reports about that Zyban stuff.
2 friends, both into their 50's gave up with it last year, not a problem but, one of the blokes that works with me went on it & he was real crook, came out in bruises, lost weight, would go home for lunch & come back 2 days later.... he still smokes.

Clamps, lots & lots of clamps.... my new/old vice is still in pieces & the one that is set up so I can use it is buried under a pile of crud so I can't get at it anyway.

I get clamps when i drink too much coffee and tea, when i have too much sex, when i crave for a good cigar but not with woodworking so i guess im going about things the wrong way? but you can never have enough clamps ...can you?
