For the record, that page that is 3-5 years old has some incredibly useful information for a new builder. I've especially enjoyed the section that outlines what I need to do to get a good shop space preapred.
I din't even think about how you need to have a really flat building surface to make sure that everything stays nice and square.

I'm also convinced that using a magnetic building surface is a great way to go.

Yep, that SeamusG is some kind of pretty smart person. For any newbies just starting to post up you may want to listen when he speaks, you may learn something. Wait until it's time for you to do some covering, you may want to be nice to him and not snark him too much if you don't get the humor, your going to want to know him pretty soon. In my case, I can slam him and not even use a smiley face, he gets the humor, he even knows how much I like to sand!!
