I'm 100% guilty of this as well. My first post in here I was scared of more accomplished woodworkers nitpicking my work, so I felt the need to point the flaws before anyone else could find them. I still don't feel comfortable using the term woodworker for myself, cause it feels like I'm posing.

But after seeing countless posts of absolutely beautiful work with some sort of qualifier I feel the need to say you don't need to do it.

You're creating something, you're teaching yourself new skills, you're pushing yourself.

I promise to follow my own advice. Skip the qualifier, post your work, be proud!
