That is the way it is with everyone. I just built a compost tumbler. Seemed pretty simple. Wood frame for a rod to run through the middle of a plastic barrel. But I ran into a ton of little quirks that you don't think of. I had to use my jigsaw to cut some round holes to run the rod through. But I had already bolted the piece together and the bolts were blocking the plate on my jig. So I had to take it apart, cut the holes, then bolt them all back together. Another time I made a slight change in the plan halfway through without thinking about the bolts I had bought not being long enough.
But it turned out pretty good. Think I'll take a picture and make a thread.
Back to your project. That looks real nice. Hope you had some of that nice cool dry weather to work in. That makes a huge difference in how much I can get done outside.
