simocco Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 Im still working on my 30 day dovetails! but caught myself on one evening. I only had a spare few minutes to do a bit more work, and i found myself really rushing to try and see some results, it was late and I was tired too, and thats not a good thing with a hammer and chisel in your hands! thankfully i didn't injure myself but my dovetails aren't so pretty :-( So....sacrifice quantity for quality? i probably should, and not risk loosing a finger!

Guest Trace Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 When I think I'm tired, I probably was a half hour before. That's the time the tools are turned off, or put away. The shop may get cleaned up a bit, but nothing requiring much thought or dexterity. The restoration parts that I make must fit perfectly together, or the final project shows bumps where there should not be any. Not good for the museum piece or for the business.

Bobby Slack Posted November 1, 2010 Report Share Posted November 1, 2010 Remember that in the ski lift, accidents happen after 3 PM when people get tired and over confident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
