Kropotkin on luxuries (COB)

[Lanky Wanker]

In the Conquest of Bread, Kropotkin speaks of those with common interests coming together to satisfy their creative desires and such, but I'm not too clear on what he means. He seems to be referring to things such as studies and research more than material objects, and, as I always say, maybe I missed something, but I read the chapter on luxuries earlier today and it didn't really seem to answer the question(s) properly. It sounds as though he expects people to build all of their luxuries themselves, which I'm guessing isn't the case, seeing as a computer isn't just something you do yourself in a week without any hassle. I don't think he would have had the opportunity to enjoy sitting at a computer himself, but a computer would need a LOT of special designing and whatnot. Anyway, could someone please elaborate on this for me? As a musician myself, I'm curious to know how, for example, I would go about getting a new guitar. Would I just call up a bunch of guitar makers to do it (and/or teach me how to) then get busy in an available working area? What about those materials? I hear people talking about vouchers and such for purchasing luxuries, but Kropotkin doesn't seem to mention any of that.

I can't quote anything in particular, but hopefully you'll know what I'm talking about.
