Now it's all about speed and power tools, but do you miss the craft too?

My grandpa’s old belt sander is still in the garage... I pick it up sometimes just to feel the weight of it. There’s something about that old manual rhythm you just don’t get now.

My dad's old hand saws just feel different, you know?
