Well, I think like a lot of people recently, I am skulking around reading all I can about building and I am flirting with the idea of getting started with a kit at some point. I have searched the forum and read most of the new and old threads about kits, and some individual build threads, and I don't think this is a redundant request.
I'd love to see your photos of completed mandolins that started as kits, to give an idea of what the finished product can be like from different kits. Maybe give some details about your customizations, and make remarks and comparisons about the feel and sound of your instrument (or even audio/video). I'm also curious if you prolific builders consider a kit build your #1 or whether that's a scratch build or something that carries some design distinction for you. I guess a cook only has to change one ingredient for it to be "their" recipe, eh?
Thanks for playing!
