Default RE: WHY DO YOU BUILT KITS?

Forget what I said earlier.....I was having a bad moment......well, forget some of it....

What I meant to really say is that if people are hesitant about building due to the lack of tools, forget that next ARF and buy something like a tabletop sander for around $100 instead. That sure helps the sanding part. Sears has tools like that pretty cheap nowadays. Dremel tools are getting pretty cheap. It doesn't take much to get started. If anyone saw the tiny space and tiny work table that I used to build my first two kits they would laugh and not believe it could be done.

So, that money for the next ARF could be better spent on tools to build. Tools last longer than any ARF! Buy the kit, keep the plans and part outlines, and you can build that kit as many times as you want....
