Me: Hey, public forum, I could use some recommendations that fit these precise criteria.
Everyone: Let me tell you about my favorite thing that isn't any of those criteria!

Not so long ago, in a Facebook group for leatherworkers, a member asked for help with a dust extraction solution for a very specific table sander. There were 100+ suggestions, most of which were nowhere near on point. At least half were "Wear a mask and don't worry." Two of us have that exact sander (a specific model of Makita) and had a real answer. I think a lot of people just want to hear/read themselves.

I might be one of them.....

Well, even though not perfectl, fora have some structural advantages over FB groups or Discords, at least with larger numbers of participants.

My mom always told me, "If you can't be the best at something, legendary for your lifetime, then be the horrifying example they talk about for a thousand years."

... and then mom always added, "Now get me my 'shine, boy!"
