Things that drive me nuts.

[George K]

I was at the village hall this week waiting to purchase a vehicle sticker.

As I stood in line, I saw this door.

Since I was bored, I noticed this. I mean, c'mon man!

I'm no trim carpenter, but I'm sure that I could do better than that. In fact, I have done better than that.

Yeah, but it was mitered by mechanics.

On a Friday afternoon.

Go unions!

And then, what the hell is with the "chair rail?" Why doesn't it go up to the trim around the door?

Shucks, I just like the grain match on the door....

That was the first thing I noticed.

A while ago, I built a small two drawer file cabinet. The front of the drawers is solid oak. I couldn't find pieces wide enough, so I edge-glued a couple of boards together. I did a shitty job of matching the grain (iow, I didn't pay attention) and it bothers me to this day. Gotta admit, that it's not as egregious as the bottom of that door.

I'll post a picture later, when I get motivated to get out of my chair.

@George-K Hmm, looks pretty good to me. LOL. I am not sure I see a problem with your file cabinet
