Do: Get second, third, and fourth opinions on how long something will take.
Do: Have a backup plan ready and waiting.
Do: Monitor chiefdelphi during build. You never know when an interesting solution will pop up there.
Do Not: Assume that because someone has been with the team for a long time, they are the best person for the job.
Do Not: Underestimate freshmen. Ever.
Do Not: forget to include the 4x4s in your new crate dimensions. LOOONG monday night....
