I want to learn openscad - Looks scary!
I found a few tutorials, one on makerbot I'm reading now: http://www.makerbot.com/blog/tag/openscad-tutorial/

But does any one have any info or tips to help someone who has ZERO knowledge?
All of my designs are done in TinkerCAD (which I fully recommend to anyone!!).
The makerbot blog is poorly formatted. My eyes wander too often and I get side tracked.
The scad online manual is UUUUUUUGLY!

I need to use OpenScad to fix some files I'm working with and build some add-on's.

.... Secret project which I will release on here soon!
