Well, I build stuff then keep them built as long as posible untill I need
the parts for a new MOC. I often just take off the parts I need, leaving the
model all messed up so I eventually just go ahead and disassemble the rest.
I currently only have 2 of the models on my site still built due to the fact
that most of my parts are in my 2 current models (both are very large). I
imagine that when I am over building withdrawel after I finish these 2 I'll
tear them apart to make new stuff...
