Default RE: Does it cost more to by an ARF or to build from scratch

For me I found that kits cost more to put together than ARFs. Total scratch building from plans is cheaper than ARFs but takes a lot longer longer as each piece has to be marked out, cut, and then sanded. Talk about taking up lots of time![X(] One of the nicest planes I fly right now is a Cloud Dancer 60 from plans. Its fairly big which makes it easy to see and its a very smooth flyer.
