I like to build, to make things and make them work. ARF's fill the "right now" impatience on my part but have no soul. Kits can be covered differently or added to but I like scale and there are just to many Corsair's, Mustantgs etc. I like my planes to be somewhat unique. A short kit or plans allows me to pick the balsa which for me is the most important point for building. I have yet to detail much of anything but I do like to make a pretty build. I'm currently building a kit Zero and replaced some of the balsa. I have gotten wood from a kit cutter which was nice but I don't see the need to be in a hurry now. I enjoy the total process of the build and solving problems along the way. Each build is an experiment for me, sliding canopy, retracts, flaps, making a canopy or cowl etc.
