Biggest danger will be turning a block -I like to chain piece, so all the sections end up linked together, in the right order and orientation. That helps avoid flipping something. And mark the top left of each section, to help keep everything upright.

Since I was contemplating doing it in rows, this is definitely something to consider. Thanks!
