I can certainly relate to your experiences. I, too, like to use LEGO
as a means for relaxing and getting my mind off work and everyday's
trivialities. However, I suppose I like problem solving. So when I
build with LEGO, I like to experiment with different ideas. Only
very, very seldom do I every finish off an MOC completely. All I
"produce" is half made suspension setups, various transmissions, booms
and rigs for construction equipment and so on. I would probably never
have the patience to finish a model, and prepare a presentation like
the ones Jennifer Clark makes.
All in all, I'm pretty much happy with the current situation. The
only thing I miss is to actually finish something. It is a nice
feeling to apply the last brick to a model and put it on the shelf, if
only for a few days until I need some parts from it.
