How do you build your sets, single or all in?

Generally I concentrate on one set at a time. When the "frenzy stage" ends and the cards I need for a set are fewer and farther between, I start trying to determine my next set project, but I still look for the cards I need to finish the sets I start. So in truth I usually have a primary set focus, but when the shopping slows down I find another focus but still multi-task to finish the sets I start.


Right now: Primary focus is pre-war type cards, but still trying to settle on my personal definition of what constitutes "a set"

Multi-tasking to finish: t206, t205 hofers, e120 hofers, 33 goudey hofers, late-40's/50's hofer type set, a couple of modern projects.
