Rufcut, I agree building is a source of relaxation and satisfaction for me. As for the lack of kits if you really look hard on line at all the different threads and RC URL it is amazing what you can find. I hunted down a Mosquitobite Tri-Pacer from a fellow flier in Canada. This is an awesome kit and a real shame they are not still available, It is a builders dream kit.

Also as you mentioned about plans, with so many people now offering laser cutting o plans it is surly a way to go. I have like you assembled a couple of ARF's and have enjoyed flying them, but there is nothing like taking a box of wood and making it your own.
