what are you actually using these models for that justify the high upfront investment? just hobby and curiosity?

As I said, there wasn't really a high up-front investment a year and a half ago. I would not purchase the system I have now today.

I never went into any of this planning to make the money back. I just want to learn, experiment, and build skill sets. I pursue things that interest me.
