Tips and tricks - just can't get enough of'em
Personally I sometimes delve into this page: Geometer Workshop Hints and Tips
most often without any particular need, rather just checking out methods, suggestions and tools.
Attached is a pdf with all tips and tricks in subject order: Attachment 39632
Then, I try to adapt these in how I would go about these with my limited (material and intellectual) resources.
This is (in my walk-in closet workshop) a most rewarding exercise in itself, but occasionally I actually do something.
This might seem like a complete waste of time,
but I've come to realize that some of these "how-to" ideas pops outta the back of my head
when I have to wing something "quick, dirty and operational" with available stuff together at work.
Thus - the "how-to" is unconsciously at disposition, and just the try-outs can proceed at full speed, saving time for corrections.
2 cents, and hope somebody will find them useful.
