Ah, you want to learn the mysterious ancient and forbidden art of sandwich making. Well, young padawan, you must be persistent in your endeavors and start along a path of simple but endless reading. The path is long but will take many scenic detours. Not all side paths will be productive, but because you are only reading and not buying none will be expensive either.
There will be point when you will know what sandwich to build. It will occur after much wax on and wax off. Sandwich meat, bread type and condiments all will be clear. You will still not catch the fly with chopsticks but you will be ready to invest in a piece of equipment. Maybe it will be a new model, maybe an old model. Wax on wax off reading will illuminate this decision.
