Slightly OT.
Years ago my folks were members of the Horseless Carriage Club. I remember that we had one guy who joined who did not know a wrench from a screwdriver. He was an accountant, and had the mechanical instincts of a Goldfish. He joined the club, and within 3 months bought a nicely restored '26 Ford Model T Roadster Pickup, from a member of the Club. "Bob" was an enthusiastic member of the Club. He and his T, made every event we held. He would take his T over to the original owners house for maintenance, and repairs. He even learned some small repair skills with his car. When I left, "Bob" was running for president of the Club. "Bob" could never have restored that T. Heck, he could not even drive it, when he bought it. Nonetheless, he was crazy about Old Cars, and he knew enough to know that he could only do so much. It never stopped him, from having fun.
It is easily possible that for some people, Building a Model is just not going to happen. That does not stop them from appreciating Models, though. So, They buy what they cannot build. As long, as they don't try to pass off the builds as their own work, I'm happy to have them in my hobby!
