I disagree with Phillip on this, there is a continuous range of things between fine woodworking and DIY. The original stackoverflow site has questions over a large variety of programming languages, no one member of the site has an interest in all of them, but the site works well with a relatively broad definition of topic. We should do the same here or else risk having too small a pool of users. – John Knoeller Sep 4 '10 at 16:53

My proposal is basically "rec.woodworking" for the stack exchange system. There is already a DIY site which has made it all the way through commitment already. – Master Of Disaster Sep 5 '10 at 4:14

@Philip Ngan I dissagree. I don't think that you want to make a site too specific and finding that level is the hard part. I agree with John Knoeller because rough to fine woodwork is just a continuum so It would be a bad idea to split it up. – andrew Jan 21 '11 at 11:54
