Use several Scene tabs to remember views, layers, shadows and styles etc.
When modeling use one with a simple style - with no fancy edge effects, no textures, no shadows, no fog etc and with any layers containing unneeded entourage set 'off'.
You can also have a tab for 'troubleshooting' showing hidden geometry, in Monochrome mode etc.
You can have style that keep the current camera, so toggling between two tabs needn't change the view, just the rendering settings, visible layers etc...
Have other scenes set up for your actual 'presentation', using fancy edge detailing, full texturing, shadows, fog, entourage layers 'on' etc...
When you have a SKP set up that suits your needs then save a version of it [with its entities deleted etc] as the 'default Template'. That way you always have the same set up when you open a new SKP. You will also need to remove unwanted/unused components from the Browser [delete individual ones, or purge_all if you want to keep none], also unwanted scene-tabs, layers, materials and styles can be removed from the Template before the final save: you can have a Template [or even several Templates!] with your own customized preset scene-tabs[with view/shadows/etc], layer-sets, styles, materials and components; even if they are unused initially...
