Well, I don't "make" the wood or the saw, but I would justifiably be more proud
of making, say, a table rather than buying one in a shop.

We do these things because a) we learn something we would not otherwise learn
and b) because it's fun.

I don't need to write my own mandlebrot generator, but by doing so I understand
more about fractals than if I just buy someone else's program or use a built-in
pattern in pov.

But then you knew that really ;)
