yeah, that's where we differ. I never get much building done because
I can't bear to break my models once they're built.
Bulk parts are still pretty poor but I reckon if people order enough of
them they'll soon sell everything. If the volume is there it has to be far
more profitable than
making kits with expensive packaging for retail.
