I'm building the door casing for our entrance door. My wife wanted an arch on top with a raised panel in it. I made the design of the arch with my DeltaCad program and printed a full size template. I couldn't believe how well the two joined piece arch looked out of the BS and fit to the top casing for the door - perfect. I set up the router to cope cut the arch and top casing board. I started with the casing and it looked great - except I cut cut the lower side instead of the upper:eek:. Less that $10 in wood but infinite amount of pride. Back to the wood store tonight.

Heh, that's just age letting you know it's creeping up on you.

Last year I was painting numbers on the back side of some vent covers to remind me where they needed to be placed. A few months ago I pulled them all off to do some maintenance and noticed that I painted a backwards 5... wtf!!?? :o

Been there done that!! How come those cuts or procedures go sooooo smooth and work just like you had planned.

At least you didn't knock over all 19 balusters you just finished staining, and a newel post to boot. Argg. Want to trade?
