Took three tries to get the angles perfect. Now it sits on my desk as a reminder of the goal.

Three failed model ships sat on my shelf for months before I dumped them lol.

That model on your desk just looks like clutter to me... if the goal was to build it, you already did that. Keeping a reminder feels like you're holding onto the struggle instead of moving on. I never understood displaying failed attempts like trophies. Seems like it would just make you stare at past problems instead of new projects.

Honestly, isn't that clutter just proof you can fix what breaks?
