Re: The Dumbest things
We were making our frame rails in the CNC machine. They were so long they required two setups/operations. So, after both rails get the first operation (which includes countersinking) done, I put one in the next setup/operation and after its done I look at it and say "that's funny, those holes aren't countersunk." Well, sure enough I put the frame rail in the vise upside down and it was the only piece of material we had and it was like 10:00 PM and the frame was supposed to be done a day before. So, we fixed it by doing a little bit of a rework on it and you'd probably never know the differenc now.
