Building Old Kits??

[Chris Campbell]

This reminds me of the tool collector problem.  Lots of great
woodworking tools are snagged by collectors who worship them, making
them too expensive for those of us who want to use them.  It's always
sad when things become Investments and lose their fun and usefulness.
