    Finally, I learned to do more planning when taking on a project, and resist the urge to begin modeling and engineering right away.

I know that feeling! It's always tempting to dive right in and get going, but you'll almost never regret spending some time thinking about things and getting more details, asking questions etc. Thanks for write-up; it was an interesting insight into this kind of engineering project.
