Round The Bend

I headed off to track down a length of wood of a specific dimension today.
The first place ......... no joy.
The second place ........ no problem.
I got it home and found it wasn't the right dimensions at all. It was metric rather than imperial. Which made it too small.
I will be able to use it at some point -- but it wasn't what I wanted!!!
Back to the drawing board on Monday.
