I think most DIY projects are about the personal satisfaction of doing it yourself rather than cost-efficiency. I know I used to think that DIYs would always be cheaper - for any kind of project - and I quickly found out that is rarely the case.

I will slightly disagree on this. I've built some speakers that cost me $9,000 building which I would have spent around $12,000 assuming I decided to buy from the stores. I didn't count the time that I spent building it, but I was very happy that I was able to do it myself.
