Do you find it hard to choose the right materials for your projects?

Hey all. I’m building a tool that helps DIYers figure out what materials to use based on the environment, durability needs, and budget. For example, if you’re making cabinets in a humid kitchen or storage shelves in a cold garage, it could suggest the best material options with pros and cons. I’m curious - Where do you normally go for advice when picking materials - Have you ever used the wrong one and had to redo something - Would a smart assistant that gives tailored suggestions and links to real products be something you’d actually try Open to any feedback here. Just trying to see if this is helpful or totally unnecessary submitted by /u/Historical-River-513 [link] [comments]
