Honestly, I think saving a glory hole for big gathers is just smart. You learn a specific way for a reason, and sticking to it keeps your process clean. Changing up how you use a core tool halfway through a project is asking for mistakes. If a part is cooling too fast, that's what a bench burner or a hand torch is for, not messing with your main heat source setup. Some tools just have one job, and trying to make them do everything makes you sloppy.

Limiting fonts like your professor said stops me from wasting time on endless font pairings.

Ever try that rubbery spray for tool handles?
