This weekend's work won't be visible.
Middle son took a bed frame with him to school. Somehow, on the way home it wouldn't fit, so he decided to saw the mattress foundation in half

Wife asked me to make a replacement. I get to HD and find they have these "finished" sheets of birch, but it's $60/sheet. Perfect, then I won't have to sand the surface or wrap it in any material so the mattress doesn't get messed up.

Measure thrice, cut once, even cut the corners so can get a hand in there. Put it in the frame, SOLID foundation for the mattress. She decides the mattress surface isn't high enough, and put the hacked piece on top of the birch. If I had known this, I would have bought the $20 sheet
