Screw Ups "R" Us
Ok, for the benefit of others lets hear some of your better screw ups.
So far this winter,
1) Through drilled 12 darters using the drive center hole as a starter for a brad point bit (sans spurs). Too large a pilot, it wandered enough so that when I cut the waste off the wire hole was off center (a no no with darters)
2) Turned, drilled, sloped, and sealed 24 hard maple Musso darters. Didn't make just one first and weigh/float it. They're all 1/2 oz too heavy and sink.
3) (This is good) Made another run of darters, ready for sealer when I noticed the slope was high on one side. Started "fixing them". After about 6-8, I noticed almost all were that way.....except when I checked them with the other eye and they all looked high on the opposite side. With both eyes they were fine. Fcking bifocals!
4) Went to seal 6 skinny dannys (AYC). The sealer level was a little low. Had a closed unlabeled jar of what I was certain was ValOil. Added it and everything was great.....except it turned out to be compressor oil. Wilbond where are you?
And to think, I haven't even started using epoxy yet. Thank God I don't do this for a living.
