I get where you're coming from, but at the same time... I've been there, done that. I don't mean that in a negative way- rather, it's just that I've already gotten the satisfaction I'm going to get out of projects of this nature. Same thing as when I was in to rebuilding V8 engines when I was younger. It was fun to figure out the system, and see what was possible with a few tweaks. Now that I've clearly defined where the edges are, it's on to the next thing. I don't need to repeat the same experiment forever, you know?

Yeah I enjoy having the sense of accomplishment and the knowledge gained but like you have trouble getting excited about repeating things. I think people who do their hobbies in a serious exploratory way are probably the minority though. I ride motorcycles struggle to understand guys who just want to go ride the same route 10 hours every weekend. I guess its a kind of emotional release rather than intellectual thrill.
