Default Cam Belt Horror Stories

I am performing a compete belt and front seal overhaul on my 240 this week. Albeit parts arrive on time from 3/4 different sources . I have watched plenty of videos, read many threads and read my haynes manual as religiously as a deacon in preparation to becoming ordained.

So, the purpose of this thread. What have you personally gone through when performing your first cambelt change that you wished others would know? Any mistakes you made that had to be rectified?
I would love to know any stories, how you fixed the problem, and tips and tricks you have picked up over the years.

All info is welcome, especially if your tip is not something most would do.
