I bought a cheap router at a flea market and thought it would be good to do some shop shelves as a learner project. These are the rails for the shelves that slot into the legs with lap joints. I was going to drop some 2*4 spreaders in to the top and cut the grooves on the wrong goddamn face and now I have to redo them, and of course, don't have the material so I have to go to the fucking hardware store now

Diy rule of thumb, take the time estimate for completing a project and multiply it by 3... Or 12 lol

    i have no idea what you're talking about but i just tried to put some stick-on weatherstrips on the bottoms of our doors and i managed to fuck that all up so there's a big gap between the door and floor on one, one is so far down it takes superhuman strength to shut the door now, and the other is just patchwork covering little gaps in the other weatherstripping

    im a real handyman
