Once he is encouraged to think backwards about himself and the objects of his everyday life, the saboteur will see many opportunities in his immediate environment which cannot possibly be seen from a distance.

* Warn that inferior materials will mean in ferior work.
The potential saboteur should discover what types of faults are normally found in their kind of work and should then devise their sabotage so as to enlarge that 'margin for error.'
Do your work poorly and blame it on bad tools, machinery, or equipment.
Simple sabotage does not require specially prepared tools or equipment; it is executed by an ordinary citizen who may or may not act individually and without the necessity for active connection with an organized group; and it is carried out in such a way as to involve a minimum danger of injury, detection, and reprisal.
Slashing tires, draining fuel tanks, starting fires, starting arguments, acting stupidly, short-circuiting electric systems, abrading machine parts will waste materials, man power, and time.
