 Subject:  Re: What Drives you to Pick a Kit to Build?List thread.  
  
 Date:  Aug 14, 2005
 From:  Alex Hill 
For me, the subject matter is everything. If it's cheap and well made, so much the better, but if it's expensive and terrible, I'll still have a go. Researching is all part of fun and how you get to chat with/irritate the most interesting people and the more obscure the subject, the more entertaining the hunt for info'.
I'm not sure about the idea of un-finished kits. I've generally got a couple on the go, but on the back burner rather than abandoned.
If I'm engrossed in something major, like my current Mack NO and Long Tom project, I generally have a simpler kit on the go to provide light relief. At the moment, a Stuart VI.
