The worst part is the "in my head" ease of making something and then the reality factor. Murphy lives !
 
When my wife has an "idea" but cant expaine it or draw a sutible picture of what she wants.
I then have to fill in the gaps (canyons) and make it work like she wants it.

I just embrace the whole process from beginning to end. Can't really think of anything frustrating about it. I have even trashed the final parts and started all over again for a better design and parts. Well, maybe that is just me.
 
I try to locally source for my needs, I get all sorts of antsy having to wait for my stuff. I DO feel your pain though.
 
If you have finished the project in your head it's a good thing because when the materials have finally arrived you have already made all of the mistakes in your head. A project most always comes out better the second time you do it. ROTFLMBO

For me the Twitchy time is making the first cut's into the blank , you have designed it and it all works on paper,
BUT!!!!!!!!!
I am now making the first of the can boxes for the radial ,it's 55 mm long and I have to put 18 holes in it ranging from 18mm to 2 mm
Yep it's twitchy time.

the problem is , if it takes to long you end up redesigning,, then you have to order different sheet...and wait again...lol

What I like about "the process" is uncovering what was hidden in the blank. :)
You won't believe what I find in this hunk of aluminum.

I needed a fitting for a power steering pump and I found most of it in that piece of aluminum. pretty cool huh?
Combining it with the piece on the right I had my fitting.
