from The Mortise & Tenon Podcast Hosted by Mortise & Tenon Magazine
In this latest episode, the guys explain the setup to David Pye’s discussion about the value of workmanship. Pye explains that it would be a mistake to give too much credit to the design when the quality of the finished object is greatly determined by the artisan’s touch.
