Beat the Bajeebahs out of something insignificant then relax and reassess the build?

Greg Weld felt like that about a car once upon a time...

Then he took it to SAR.

See, don't you feel better now Lenie?

... You mean like when you finally think you're done after bolting on new brakes to get rid of knockback, then when you proceed to take it around the block, you get hit by an old lady, less than 500 ft. from the shop to the tune almost 60k worth of damage?

you could always haul it to the "Shed" on the east side and let Mr. Weld finish it, I heard that worked for some wheel designer

pick it up in time for GG

More times than I have fingers and probably toes. It's one of them love/hate relationships. When in doubt, walk away for a while. You'll get bored and stumble back out there.

Never EVER have I had a setback on a build. Everything has always, always gone according to plan. Better, even. The rest of you guys must just lack skills or something. Rookies.

"Bolts onto your car with minimal skills needed, with ordinary handtools, in a weekend's afternoon....."

Okay, EVERY little project that I have ever taken on has fought me to the near death, but the satisfaction of solving the problem is one of the single best pleasures I know. Behind orgasm.
