I've built 2 K2's; it's not too hard to build but there are difficult spots:

- grounding the crystal cans (save the anti-static pads that the IC's ship
on!).
- installing/soldering the LCD to the front panel board (issue with spacers)
- installing/soldering L33
- clearance issue between L33 and bottom cover
- winding transformers in the BFO and final amplifier circuit.
- desoldering tools.

So instead of listing my experience on these items again, I'll just list
them and say do a search on each of these in the archives before you start
the build. That way, you'll be more or less acquainted with the 'gotchas'
when you get to them. 

These are nothing that will stop you, just items that require some care and
may be a little confusing.

Enjoy!
