Default RE: Building To Sell?


ORIGINAL: Tony Hallo

I also enjoy buuilding, I find it better to build a plane for somebody as the market is set at the beginning of the project rather than building a plane and trying to find someone willing to pay for the plane you built. Do it for love, not money. I also discovered that once a project begins for somebody else, my credit card balance begins to drop as I start spending their money!
Fair point. I was thinking of doing mostly smaller 40-60 sized kits to keep the investment down so that I didn't have a problem if it sat for a while before I sold it. It is easier to have a fixed outcome, though. I definitely would be doing it for love of building, there isn't any money to be made doing it. This is just a way to let me keep building without being over run by finished models.
