Charlie E Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 For those who aren't familiar with the title of this post, "No brag, just fact" is a quote from an old Western television show I watched when I was a kid, "The Guns Of Will Sonnet." Certainly not bragging about this post, just knew you guys could relate with my frustration. I was cutting this for a friend to give to some friends of his who bought their dream beach home at Dauhpin Island. After about 2-3 hours of tedious cutting I took the top pattern off to find what I thought was a small crack on the back side went almost all the way through and some pieces feel out. I cracked it the rest of the way to vent my frustration. Strike one! meflick, FrankEV, frankorona and 7 others 4 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxfold Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 I feel your pain and frustration, I've had that happen to me. I snapped the whole piece over my knee and threw it across the room. !! Charlie E, meflick and amazingkevin 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new2woodwrk Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 Glad (well you know what I mean) I'm not the only one! And I used to love that show when I was a kid. That and Wanted Dead or Alive - Steve McQueen! Charlie E and amazingkevin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjR Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 I used to have a wood burning stove in my shop that seemed to always stay well fed! FOR THOSE SAME REASONS! Charlie E, meflick and amazingkevin 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spirithorse Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 Charlie, Sorry to hear that happened to you. I think most of us have had that same problem but, that certainly doesn't ease the pain and frustration when it happens. God Bless!

amazingkevin Posted October 19, 2020 Report Share Posted October 19, 2020 Well when your felt lemons make lemonade. I see a quick fix is to make the same fall out at the end of the word Islands And maybe modifie it to look like a star, or just a fancy shape. I,ve been there with the Lord's prayer right from the start letters poped out. But I finished it 20" x 40" because of what it was and my first of many Lord's prayers . I don,t think I learned my lesson though. Charlie E and frankorona 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
