I'm sure those good at eyeballing use some techniques that's why they are good at it.
Mind sharing your secrets.
Straightness of a material , flatness , angles, and what not . Guesstimates that are valid.

Sometimes eyeballing need helper tools. Do you have a pic Timb when you were flattening the Mahogany stock for the conference table. You had used two wooden bars to help eyeball it. Hehehehehe

When sawing with a handsaw, to get it close to perpendicular, use the reflection of the wood on the saw blade to see if you are tilting it too much on either side.

Eyeballing, ah, what an experience. You need to make sure flatness is avoided. Angles and shapes are of necessity and straightness is a model's jig. Oh wait, are we talking about wood?! He-he-he!:confused:;):rolleyes::p:
