+Again, in no particular order, I learned the following:
+
+- My x-acto knife will gladly take slivers off of my metal ruler when given the chance
+- My professor has a first-aid kit in the building (though it thankfully went unused)
+- It is nearly impossible for me to get anything to end up flush without giving myself a 5mm tolerance to each edge
+- To cut through paper, use pressure with the knife, or else it won't cut fully
+- Adhesive can warp the paper in the most annoying ways
+- Going through each step with all the paper at once is great, until you misinterpret a step and all your work is scrapped instead of one or two folios
+- Conversely, having to shuffle a pile of tools around is annoying, and re-doing your work may be faster and safer than risking a grab into the toolbag when your x-acto knife's cover may have come loose (though with experience, this becomes less of an issue)
