For me it depends on the set. For sets I really like, I'll build them for a while, but I usually can't wait to cannibalize them for parts. A lot of times, I dislike the set and am just buying it (often many copies) for parts. For example, I have 12 (...) (24 years ago, 29-Mar-01, to lugnet.build)

Hmm, my building habits are.... Right now I'm primarily in sorting mode. Unfortunately unless something happens to really make me stop buying it may be a while before I get caught up (though I am slowly catching up). I have done some building (...)

It was a fairly obvious idea but one I had to make and it was a lot of fun making the set. Thank god for bulk purchases of the B&W tiles 2x2 from LD. And some timely purchases of blue slope 45 2x2s.

I have a tendency to let the models I build accumulate, until I reach the point where I can't bear to see all the pieces that are unavailable. Then I tear apart practiaclly everything, except a few of my particular favorites... of course I'll even (...) (24 years ago, 29-Mar-01, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space, lugnet.build)

I have almost the same problem in reverse. Once I've built a set using the instructions, I have a really hard time taking it apart. It will stay assembled for weeks before I can make myself tear it apart. Also, I have an odd compulsion to position (...) (24 years ago, 29-Mar-01, to lugnet.build)

(...) Hehe.. that's cool. Though that does require the procurement of more bricks. Something that is a bit costly to me. Right now I'm in the "hey...

Ever since my little-kid days I have always felt a need to build the set using the instructions at least once, even if it's a really dumb one that I just bought for the parts. But lately I've started buying more than one of some sets, and am (...) (24 years ago, 29-Mar-01, to lugnet.build)
