Does there ever come a time when we quit making mistakes?

I just finished making cuts on the head piece of a king-size bed frame and when I placed it up against the wall after the cuts were made, I noticed that it seemed shorter than the footboard piece. That’s when I realized that my drawing in sketchup, which I came in to reference, had said [6', 6 1/2” ] and my brain had remembered [72 1/2”].


In this design, I can fix it and it won’t even be seen, but it’s annoying. Mostly because I thought I was past this type of mistake. I’ve got a fix for future projects, etc., but what it comes down to is that it’s just personally embarrassing.


On the other side of that, I was able to quickly get past the annoyance factor and figure out the fix.
