I never told about wood flaws until a friend's cabinet failed
I used to hide minor cracks in wood to save time. After a buddy's dresser drawer collapsed, I realized that wasn't right. Do you think we should always mention these issues?

Structural surprises are the worst kind of gift. Your friend's dresser just gave you a wake-up call!

Man, that really stinks... furniture falling apart when you least expect it. Had a similar thing happen with an old bookshelf once... just collapsed out of nowhere. Makes you lose trust in everything you own, you know? Now I'm paranoid about checking all the joints and screws on stuff. It's like a betrayal from something that's supposed to just sit there and hold your things. Hope your friend's dresser didn't ruin anything too important.

Wait, you were actually HIDING cracks to save time? That's wild man, those little flaws can totally wreck the whole structure. A dresser drawer holds clothes and stuff, that collapse could have hurt someone. You gotta call that stuff out every single time, no question.
