Nostrebore and americandemon, cmon now. No one is bossing him around nor is the "if you don't like it, don't read it" mentality called for. It's merely a suggestion. I'm just saying that I don't think this project will get much respect from the veterans of the community at this point. Overhype and underachievment don't fare well here as you can see from some of the other vets here. I agree with others here with keeping up the good work, now let's just see some work. He should rename it to "mission control project Blog" but it's his thread. Like I said before, I don't want to see this thread locked for being inappropriate.
I cannot understand the sensitivity of this forum's members to the...
"if you don't like it, don't read it" mentality"
When I walk up to a magazine rack, I do not read, cover-to-cover, every magazine. Some I know for a fact that they will not interest me. I will not be knitting anytime soon, so I do not pick up
Knitting Illustrated. Others I browse through, and if their "format" or "content" turn me off, I put them back on the rack, never to be picked up again. Now I did not say "IF YOU DON"T LIKE IT... etc." I said it may not be your cup of tea. Just like
Knitting Illustrated, you do not share in someone Else's interest in that particular field.
I'm not picking here. Just a bit confused as to why this is out of line?

This comment is a bit stronger than suggestion. I think Pixel has more than demonstrated to the community that he is not an "underachiever" Just look at his artwork, or the effort he has put into bending 1/4" plexi! What you are witnessing is a passion for his creation, in convenient thread form.
but it's his thread. Like I said before, I don't want to see this thread locked for being inappropriate.
You are absolutely right. It is his thread... and I predict that our friendly conversation is doing exponentionally more harm than his progress reports (or lack thereof as you contend
) It has been my experience that these types of discussions are the reason for thread locking in this forum.
I have yet to witness a lockdown over a plexi bending demonstration. I, even more than you, would like to see this thread stay on topic - The topic of mundane details that make a good cabinet great.
That is all I have to say.
Oh, except it is Nostrebor. no E is required
