Pros and Cons of buying a tube amp kit, vs. buying parts separately

I did some investigative reporting (ha!) and it does look like one could save a bit of money by buying all thee parts ad-hoc and doing it 100% DIY. But... the savings would be so small, you might as well buy a kit. Still agree with @mozz though; Stew Mac's kits are about ~15-20% more expensive than any other kits out there. But... if you have a look through some YouTube videos of people building Stew Mac kits, they do look to be of the highest quality, and the most "correct" in their adherence to the original. For example, the wire Stew Mac includes in their Fender amp kits is that braided cloth "push back" wire that was the thing back in the 60s, and the capacitors and resistors are all supposed to be spot on, just like a hand wired Fender would have been back in the day. Also... the instruction manual Stew Mac put together looks to be second to none. Stew Mac even lets you download their instructional manuals free of charge, even without buying the kit. That surprised the hell out of me, considering how much work went into making it. I've seen them, and they are better than any text book I've ever seen. Mojo Tone is supposed to also have really good kits, but I've heard they come with zero instructions. You just kinda have to know what you're doing. To be honest, I think tube amps can be so dangerous to build for total n00bies, it might be for the best that they expect you to know what you're doing.

I find myself getting into these mental debates with myself quite often when it comes to DIY audio projects. I know that a hand wired, point-to-point Fender Deluxe 5E3 kit would be a much better amp than buying a brand new PCB Fender Deluxe reissue. I'm also not the kind of guy that would want to try to buy the plastic fender logo, and really try to "pass my clone amp off" as a real Fender amp. Since I am so into woodworking, I think I might try to reach out to Stew Mac to see if they will sell me their amp kit, without the cabinet and chassis. That way I can have the best of both worlds. I can make the amp my own, from an outward aesthetic perspective, but still have the sound of a soft-clipping Neil Young 5E3 Deluxe.
