Callen, you sound a lot like me. I spent a good 3-4 weeks doing nothing but CAD work for the first time before starting refleXion. Before that, I spent about a month learning photography for the first time. And now, I'm spending about a month learning workshop (many tools which I'm using for the first time).

It's a lot to digest, but you seem to be a quick learner with some good creativity and shop skills. I look forward to seeing how the rest of the build pans out.

On a related note, I'm enjoying the routing table so much that I want to invest in something nicer with more space like you have with your Kreg. This Ryobi I'm using is only 18x13". I think I'm going with a Rockler next as it's a nice 32x24" table with lots of room on that back fence.
