One thing for you Newbie and Amature Scratch builders (like myself) to keep in mind---Noahs Ark was built by amatures--the Titanic by professionals!!!

Noah knew nothing of electricity, but that didn't stop him from making an arc

but........that's the obverse, and every coin has two sides. The reverse states, " No ship like Titanic had ever been built, so there were no professional Titanic builders." Who, at that time, could have ever even imagined, a Nimitz class carrier.
The education comes not from the mistakes, but rather from the consequences suffered, and the resulting commitment to, "never make that mistake again" .
So !, the other thing for Newbie and Amateur Scratch builders to keep in mind is, wear the badge "amateur" with pride, and go make mistakes and learn from them.
Every one of us who builds something for the first time, is, in truth, an amateur.
