    Nicotine and caffeine are aquired habits and the hardest to break; caffeine is the only thing I can't kick. Woodworking and sex are as natural as breathing, they're not vices and I don't have a problem. Shut-up, I do not.

    Caffiene isnt addictive It just taste's good, and Im a shiftworker!
    I gave up the stinky habit about 4yrs ago, I thought it was going to be hard... lucky the SWMBO was on a tour of europe for 2mths while I did it!
    I use those Zyban tablets and found it quite easy, even when OP smoked infront of me.

    Good on ya, I went cold turkey about 24 years ago.
    I've heard good & bad reports about that Zyban stuff.
    2 friends, both into their 50's gave up with it last year, not a problem but, one of the blokes that works with me went on it & he was real crook, came out in bruises, lost weight, would go home for lunch & come back 2 days later.... he still smokes.

    Clamps, lots & lots of clamps.... my new/old vice is still in pieces & the one that is set up so I can use it is buried under a pile of crud so I can't get at it anyway.

    I get clamps when i drink too much coffee and tea, when i have too much sex, when i crave for a good cigar but not with woodworking so i guess im going about things the wrong way? but you can never have enough clamps ...can you?
