Just gonna talk to myself. Spent 30 years skating. I didn't own street builds, vert builds, pool builds. I have owned nearly every tinywhoop available for sale, some of them several times. 65, 75, 85, I have a graveyard of quads, most of them no more damaged than a missing antennae, the worst needing a frame transplant. I want to build, but have physical limitations that make that difficult and people aren't as receptive to "hey, can I pay you to build this for me?" as you might think. I get legit depressed, not sad, if I don't have a quad in full send condition. Now, 2.5", 3", 3.5", already looking at my first 5" build, but still not a single plan to build my own.
For the pilots that do custom builds or Frankenstein builds, is it worth the effort? It can't be a money thing. I want to create something.
