    it depends on what you've got, and what you want to do with it, and how much time you have. I've got a busted ol lawn chair out there I'll eventually clean up, when there's nothing better to do. I've broken down lots of things just trying to figure out how, and to see what's inside it, many of which I won't break down again, no matter how much time I've got to give it, it's just become more sensible to toss it in the motor pile, or the transformer pile, etc. I've no doubt made mistakes, spent too much time on some things, and sold others for less than I'd have gotten by breaking them down, but that's just the way it goes I guess. What I've just explained isn't really saying a whole lot, that's just life, but it's my story and i'm stickin to it
