Default What would you do different?

I feel like I'm getting ready to open up a can-o-worms. But, just starting my 8 build and just wondering what would be some things to watch out for while building the empanage or any tips. I had a buddy that has completed an awesome 8 help me out with the techniques of dimpling, bucking, etc. thanks again Dave, I know you live on this site.
