Maybe some day Paul, you will make a book up with all your units.
Put in the board layout, parts list, assembly guide and troubleshooting.
Sell that. Let the DIY gather and work with that.
Just think, you can update that book every year with your new units.
Even divide it up now between basic unit and special interest.

The irony is that over the 8 1/2 years the kits have been available, the rise in
parts cost, copper wire (copper is 485% more than 10 years ago), solder
(doubled), evil empire Tyco (knobs that were 68 cents are now $1.35) and the
sheer labor/logistics of keeping track/buying/stuffing into little plastic bags
for 1.1 million (not a typo) parts means that the kits are MORE EXPENSIVE than
assembled.<snip>
