I'm building an RV. I leave my hangar door open (I don't understand why
people don't want visitors, really.) When expert builders stop by -- as they
often do -- I encourage them to look at the project and holler if they see
something that doesn't look right or could be improved (although I do joke
that my hangar rules or "no looking closer than from 1 foot!"(g)).
I've been building since 2001 and, yes, I'm a slow builder, but when I was
growing up, my family called me the "Scotch tape kid," because I took the
shortest route to fix any problem -- tape. If the airplane project has
taught me anything at all, "take your time, do it right, and kick the people
who make fun of how long it's taking out of the hangar" are the most
important.
I fear we're preaching to the choir here, however. People who read
AeroElectric Connection or hang out here on the list, already have a
preference for quality and good workmanship.

Bob C, et al, I agree that this thread is "preaching to the choir", but every good choir needs to learn a new tune now and then. Without harping on the subject we often need new examples to illustrate to a potential victim why what they are thinking of doing, or actually doing for that matter, is a bad idea. It's always a delicate matter to tell someone you believe they are going down a wrong path, having a concrete example is just another tool to get that across.
