Craftsman & Perfect

I’ve been sketching out a new wooden table that sticks to a strict 1:2:3 ratio—would that fit your grid standards?
Perfect
A 1:2:3 ratio is a step in the right direction, but it still leaves the edges uneven. For a true grid, aim for proportions that mirror each other—think 1:1:1 or 1:2:1. If you can tweak it that way, it’ll fit the standards.

I see what you mean—mirroring the edges does give that neat symmetry. I’ll rework the cut so the panels line up 1:2:1; it should sit cleanly in the grid.
Perfect
Great, the 1:2:1 ratio will align perfectly. Just remember the grain should run along the grid lines, not across them—otherwise you’re just slanting the symmetry.
Craftsman
Good point, I’ll lay the boards so the grain follows the grid lines, keeping the symmetry straight. That should keep the whole piece looking clean and balanced.
Perfect
Excellent, now just double‑check the knots and nails—any stray deviation will look like a crime scene, and nobody wants that.

I’ll run a quick inspection on each board, straightening any knots and tightening every nail. Nothing should stand out like a crime scene—just clean, solid work.
