...you re-discover your unfinished project by looking through order history at OSHPark, then search for the PCBs that must have arrived three months ago, then assemble and test it, and then, when you go to document it at HaD, you find that you already did all that once.

:D or you throw away perfectly fine boards because you thought they were the old version, then discover that you had already fix the PCB designs and ordered them again...

At least I don't throw away stuff. Never know when you can make boxes or robot feet out of them.

Yes. Or re-spin an old board with an incorrect footprint just to find a set of already fixed PCBs in an OSH Park envelope with a box of other stuff.

Maybe the flux fumes are turning us all into Tyler Durden...
