Attempt The Mitre (2009)


How many attempts can it take to cut a Mitre joint?


Shit loads.

I am not a practical man in the ways of being handy, but sometimes I give it a go.

Thought doing a Mitre Joint would be easy.

It wasn’t so easy, my feeble brain struggled against the throws of the mighty mathematical angle.

I nearly ran out of wood.

However – perseverance won the day.

I suppose me doing DIY is a metaphor for me in general…


Procrastinate about it for ages, finally make an effort, struggle against not being as good as I hoped, try my best and produce ‘adequate’ results!

    DIY is a constant state of swearing, biting nails and sweat. All in all I tend to get the job done.. but the journey is hell!
