  • Interesting read. What differs majorly now from past collapses of civilization is the interconnection made possible with technology and the internet. Things will become less convenient, but there will probably always be someone to fill whatever void is created, baring a world wide disaster. But even then, with the technology available now, I struggle to envision a complete societal collapse. Will things change? Absolutely as it should. Is change uncomfortable ? Usually. Are we going to evolve into a Mad Max scenario? Time will tell. But I would hazard a guess of probably not.




  • I have used flat and semi gloss water based poly on several dressers over 5 years ago. They have help up very well, no yellowing. I primarily use water based stains and everything turns out great. There is a slightly different technique then with oil based. Like “popping” the grain with a spritz of water and a light sanding to get rid of the “fuzz”. I believe the WoodWisperer has some really good videos on using water based finishes if memory serves correctly.
