I was never a big crafter. Even as a long time doc, i have only crafted a few sets of enhance packs.
But in beta, i was bitten by the bug. (way before i understood RE or the elusive FS disks)
So i got a second acount and bacame a SW.
Took me a over a month of grinding and mining, but i did it , and lerned it along the way.
I now spend more time on my SW then on my main 3333 reb pilot/ master doc/ MR.
I have a small buisness, about enough to pay for the loot that i buy, and the mait for my miners, but i have a small yet loyal following. i dont want to be huge.
Ilove the RE'ing. i love collecting different components and trygin to match them to get the best one i can out of them.
I love tryign to get that perfect ratio of mass/damage or whatever ratio i happen to be looking for.
I love getting the complements " wow , i love your weapons. my cap jsut does not empty now"
I hate resours collecting, but i still do it all myself, with the help of a few guildies.
i love that i understand all (or most by now) the stats, and am not afraid of the word LOOT. ok ok, other than caps and boosters then. Becauseloot is me and i am loot.Loot makes the RE'ing alive.
i love being able to tailor certain combinations. this is not simply "make the highest damage/highest protection/etcetc" item. the balance u need to create , is dynamic and chalenging. it sets us apart form the "regular" crafters.
I still dont have a FS , but i am only 2 disks away. in a way, i fear gettign the last one - it will be like wining the loto - i will lose that hope, that expectation.
yes there are problems with this proff, but i jsut felt the need to give some positive wa or id or whatever, into this.

I gotta agree with you. I tried other crafting professions and got bored, but shipwright is alot of fun.
Its almost more of a roleplaying profession than a crafting profession, plus its great to be able to tweak out your own ship

I to am loving this proffesion 
Not gettin many custom orders for anything other than what I normaly make tho 
However I am hoping that changes when my Component Showroom opens up. It will have 1 of every item thatI can make as a SW, that way people can see what is avalable and send in specific requests
