Why wait -- consider that even a kit with a large number of parts goes 
together just like any other kit, one part at a time.  A large kit just 
takes longer to complete, but that does not make it more difficult than a 
small kit.

There are checks along the way to check your work up to that point.

In addition, Elecraft kits with their quality PC boards containing 
thru-plated holes are much easier to solder than many others without 
thru-plated holes.
