Awesome - I bow to your greatness!
Au contraire, mon soeur. I bow to YOURS.
I haven't yet got the knack for building stuff. I seem to be spacially-challenged--have a hard time visualizing how things fit together--when I try to build, or make something, I spend a lot of time ripping it apart and starting over. I usually find that those kinds of projects are best left to the pros, for me.
I think it's awesomely cool that you can build stuff.
