Default RE: WHY DO YOU BUILT KITS?

i could start counting all the good things that i have just read with all these posts, but i dont have that many body parts!

as far as kits go i am building my first one. it is the fourth plane i have bought and one of the first three was an electric. i love it, it is a sig astro hog, but it doesnt look like a hog. even though its my first build i decided that i was going to bash that kit a little bit, with a balsa cockpit, squared wing tips, balsa cowl, rebuilt tail surfaces and theres a few more little things but when i started i had the idea that it was going to look like a crop duster. i was having second thoughts about how it would look untill that day that i had the wing built and the fuse built, then i set that wing in there and i changed my mind in one fast hurry.... this was last winter and im still building it i am finishing up on the cockpit and then its getting covered.

someone posted about being "afraid" to build, i haven't heard that one yet but i get a lot of the "i don't have time to build a kit" i laugh every time i hear that, im 17 i go to school, i have a job, i play drums, work on cars, and i like girls this list could go on but yet there is always time to build, even if it is 30 minutes some nights, unless you are racing a clock you will always have time.

if you don't already do it, give it a shot, you might end up like me and not think about getting another ARF....
