I think this is one of the reasons that some DIYers get so far out there.  I look back on my early days and laugh, with the modded Rek-O-Kuts, Altecs, etc.,  but tend to take myself a little more seriously in the here-and-now (...that's different...).

The design sure looks good on paper, and it feels right, too, except I have had doubts all along about a single stage doing enough of what you want, based of course on never having heard anything like what you are attempting.

A key for me is to call it quits before I get manic and/or exhausted, no matter how close to completion I think I am at the time [I get tired].  Most of my serious errors have occurred when I am pushing myself, often in the heat of expectation.

Not saying you would ever get tunnel vision...

I'm rooting for you (and archiving your hard work).

Best,
Paul S
