Since your kit comes with everything I'd recommend winding one or two 
and see what you think.  I agree with Dave that it's not hard, and for 
me was also a very nice change of pace.  Along those lines, once the rig 
is built it's built forever.  So don't rush.  Take your time and enjoy 
every second of the build!  Not just for the sake of quality, but to 
simply enjoy a phase of the K2 that's over way too fast.

PS Plus, you get the happy feeling of having 'done it all'.
