While I was on the treadmill this morning, I found myself thinking about the skills needed to excel at woodworking - both flatwork and roundwork. I then began questioning which of the two held the greater challenge, and thought it might make for an interesting discussion.

I am well aware that both of these encompass large swaths of talents and skills and that each has its own subset of endeavors and interests. However, if the discussion is limited to flatwork as a whole and round work as a whole, my question is, which pursuit is the more difficult and/or challenging to master?
