Looks like he didn’t follow his own advice.

Been there, done that. Got the T-shi

nice to have a change of character

goodbye Caustic Carol – welcome Hapless Harold

Perhaps a second opinion on the measurements is in order.

Having drunk from The Font Of Goof.

Never use four E’s if three will do.

Measure with a micrometer, cut with an ax, beat to fit, paint to match.

you could have saved the effort and just put “2” there instead of missing a letter shrug

My sister in law (Lord rest her soul) once gave me an 8 foot 2 × 6 and ask me to cut her 104 inch length. I said how? She said with her hand saw. I said how do you get 104 inches out of 96? She had read CM on tape measure.

My dad was meticulous with projects. My mom sometimes chided him, “Which one of those 6 measurements are you going to use?”

Measure once, cuss twice

Ho back go grade school and learn how to spell

Nice to see another TWIC fan! (This Week In Chess)… ☺

Do it rig

Measure thrice. Cut twice.

Failing that, use a smaller font.

At least it’s not carved in stone on a mountain in Tibet. I wonder how a tattoo artist might salvage it. If your Mid-Century enough, you’d leave it as is and hang it in your ‘Rumpus Room’

Sorry, but everyone here is missing the point. The “error” in the sign is a far more effective way to get the point across. He’s actually very clever.

on my desk i used to have a sign that said THIMK!

Plan ahea.

Sometimes twice isn’t enough.

I read: measure twice, cut once, go back to the fabric store.

Measure 3 times, mark it twice, cut once.
