I just spent 40 minutes peeling off a warped cover from a project I started at my shop in Portland because I forgot to check the grain first and now the whole thing is trash.

oh man that's brutal! i've totally been there with grain direction mistakes and it's the worst feeling watching all that work go down the drain.

Even worse when you cut wrong and waste expensive hardwood.
