Well, with what you have achieved so far with the limited knowledge and experience with the task I think you have done remarkably well, so you must be very smart and quick to catch on. Take a break from it and get that book. Once you have read it, a lot of the pieces of the puzzle will fall into place and you will know what to do with your set. It will be a great journey of discovery.
