I think Ben's a lost cause....he was warned 
The trick is.....Don't fight it! But it IS helpful if you can have fun with engines in the low $ category,(D5) class or similar.. also helpful if your handy at building new shelves for storage. I am 6 foot 6 inches tall so I can even construct shelves on the ceiling Without a step ladder.
AND...I am not currently keeping a wife.....SO.....I got NO adult supervision....some might Even label me "The Perfect Storm"
