Help with a word.

Post by Hawke »

Anyhow, there's a word/saying for "you're almost finshed your project. A few more finishing touches and it'll be done! Just need to screw in this last screw... one more turn should do it, one more.. one more.. GAH! Went too far.

basically going 'too' far to finish something and messing it all up.

I can't think of the word for the life of me. It's REALLY bothering me. Can anyone shed some light on this?
