It seems like many come out of the summer build off with a huge sigh of relief and then in turn we see a definite dip in activity. I think the combination of the mad rush to finish sometimes as well as the high expectations placed upon ourselves can sometimes be slightly overwhelming.Well done everyone! I apologize for not putting up a build synopsis, or being as interactive this past week.
It's a weird headspace I find myself in toward the end of a build off (and after). You're using so much creative energy on the build itself, mental energy on problem solving, and physical energy on execution. All this while juggling life's duties. I hit a burnout state about 2 days before deadline. Took everything I had to get photos edited and posted. My build journal is very thorough if anyone who hasn't followed the build wants to see more, but I just didn't have enough juice to put together a recap.
While needing to decompress after a build-off, I also miss the daily updates of everyone's builds. It's a weird push/pull paradox.
Anyway, congrats to everyone who participated! Whether you finished or not, I applaud you. It's no small task.
