A router pass along the edge of a board

The cleanest version of a build is rarely the one people watch. They want proof a person did it.

One mistake, early

In Callum’s table post the router slips at second three. I kept it. Replies were full of people saying the same thing had happened to them.

Not every mistake

One is a story. Five is a blooper reel. Keep the one that makes the finish feel earned.
