    I have really enjoyed this build. Even if anything that resembles a "budget" went out the window long ago!

    Hey, we all start with a budget in mind...... Sticking to it is another thing....

    Big thing is, as a build progresses plans usually change. In the course of a build, new ideas surface that take more time and money, there's always a lot of parts, bits, and pieces omitted from the original budget...

    Heck, I've got a bunch more excuses, just saving them for another project!!!! and I only have to justify my spending excesses to myself!!!!

    I know what you mean. Sometimes, I just have to tell myself, "You need to save that idea for the next project"!

    But, don't tell my wife that I'm already thinking about the next project!
