But on another note, I also find I can work around something if I have to, adjust or whatever, but I prefer not to, becasue my first choice is to rip it out and redo it.

Always be proud of what you make, not perfect, but close and proud of it. But enjoy what you do.
I always try to get mine as perfect as possible because that 1/8" gets multiplied & by the time you're at the end of a block or a row, you're way off. So I just try to "do it right" in the first place.
