That's for sure - Alex Juchems gave me a bit of a tour of the bits he had to fabricate for the the Semroc 1/70th 1B....even the CM's RCS quads are built from little bits of sharpened dowel (for each nozzle) and a balsa block. That makes dealing with the molded RCS quads on the 1/100 Saturn V look so simple by comparison.
He didn't get the LES tower built but of course the model didn't mind.
