:zany_face: :rofl: That was me when I was cutting out those windows. @Jerry_Boswijk Two seconds after just cutting it…I was like WHERE did it go?

I tend to put mine in back in it box after I get the parts that I wanted to avoid it going missing. And it seems to be working for me every time.

Yeah i try to keep a system each time but somewhere it goes wrong haha. Probably when im in the zone and i just dont notice

I only have the problem when i forget to use the cutting sheet and just do it on the table. The motief on the table fucks with my eyes haha.

LOL! @Jerry_Boswijk I am working on a granite countertop while house and dog sitting. It messes with my eyes as well.

I saw people purchase the rack to place the board. It looks really cool. I’m eager to try it and give it a go.

You did a great job so far! haha it also happens to me sometimes that I have to take something apart because I skipped a step and while I check everything I do :sweat_smile: good luck with the rest of the build :wink:

I gave myself just a little space to work with but it seems good so far.

Yeah the pattern make it hard to see straight somehow

You are not alone on this!

I have just received the gift factory in a rokr prize draw. Cant wait to build it. Thank you for your tips. My problem is trying to remain patient and not getting ahead of myself, which is when i miss a step.

Welcome @Peter_Newman Congrats! You are not alone in wanting to work ahead! I have found myself doing this and suddenly locate a part that, whoops, I missed. and now I have to take things apart to add it. But the excitement to see finished products is real!

We have all had this especially with complicated builds like this one.

Man, nothing like that sweaty moment when you realize you need to go backwards a few steps!
