Why are you splitting armour pieces apart / removing them?

I like being able to see what a item looks and feels like before I commit mats to crafting it... especially if its the first ever one in game, nothing is worse than spending hard earned good and mats to craft a ugly item :/  pictures aren't always released when the item is added to the crafting table :/

Thats my view on using single player to see items anyways
