If you follow those simple rules, everything will work out, regardless of how much, or little, of the build you do yourself.


Afterthought -- Maybe having an "eventful build" makes it more enjoyable? Let's check in with 767Jockey and get his thoughts on that....
Nah, eventful builds cause too much stress - it sucks! Of course, the damned cancer thing doesn't help with the stress level, either - although, it sure does free up the time to get the build done. I just keep telling myself....I'm having fun, I'm having fun....most days, it's even true!
