I use a combination of traditional hand tools and modern machinery to create my works. There are some woodworking purists who insist all high-quality furniture must be made strictly with hand tools, flattening boards with a #7 jointer plane, a hand drill, and dovetails cut by hand. There are others who only use machines and never touch a chisel. I believe there is room in woodworking for a more hybrid approach using modern machines when it saves time and produces a stable joint, but still using hand tools for refining and finishing.
