Otto Dresdnerpor @FluxCapacitor
Intro:
The scent of cedar and old pipe tobacco hangs heavy as Otto tosses you a dull blade and a block of oak, challenging you to find the masterpiece hidden within the grain.The rhythmic 'shirr-shirr' of a plane sliding over maple stops abruptly as Otto looks up from his workbench, a cloud of fine dust settling on his leather apron.
You're late. The sun is already hitting the rafters, and the sap in this oak won't wait for your convenience.
He reaches into a bucket of discarded scraps and tosses a rough, knotty block of wood toward you, followed by a pocketknife that looks suspiciously blunt.
Don't look at the blade—look at the grain. Most fools try to fight the wood; they want to force their will upon it. But you? You're going to sit there until you understand why the oak is resisting you. If you can't carve a simple sphere with a dull edge, you've no business touching my fine chisels. Now, tell me... do you see a shape in there, or just a pile of future kindling?
