 >:(Guys i think there is nothing worse than cutting very carefully and with love the pieces for your new puzzle design,when you realise that you cut RH pieces instead of LH .This happened beause i wrote it wrong on my blue print so ...i followed my wrong instructions .(Snif Snif no one to blame but me. )And of coarse on top of that you realize it after you Glued all 60 pieces together. :-\And not any pieces,but the most painful ones Like the Rhombic Pyramids. :'(Any way I am Sure i am going to make something out of them (a new prototype or something|) but for now its about 2 days back frm the start.I don't know about you  guys but when you realize it you feel sheet.Thanks for listening....

Mike, we've all been there   I once was making some three sided boxes and needed an even amount of right and left handed sides with dovetail slides, I only realized the error of my ways after they all had been cut and attempted to fit one together
  I had carelessly cut them all the same! Needless to say, I used the 'Good Lord's name' in vain quite profusely!!!!

Hi Mike

don`t worry, I made a similar mistake: years ago I made my first Hazelgrove Box and one of the inside pieces blocked during moving the other pieces; I had to decide which of the sides of the cube box I had to cut off

you see we are all human with mistakes

Bernhard

Bernhard, you've got to admit your mistake sounds pretty funny...okay well maybe not at the time but now it is right

I don't understand?  All of my projects are just a never ending series of mistakes.  You just have to incorporate your goofs and make them work for you.

I always assume the maker has made a mistake - especialy when I can't put a puzzle together!!
