That's were true craftsmanship comes into play. You created a problem and knew how to fix it. The guy I learned from was rushing a panel one day and it buckled on him. He asked me what he should do to fix it. I told him to start over. He laughed, took his torch with a rose bud tip, a rag in a bucket of ice water, got the panel red hot and cooled it with the we rag. after three times the panel was perfectly smooth. I learned a lot from him, although I am still a long way from his skill level.

Yeah calling your wife an Old Girl doesn't usually get you where you want to go.
