This my tentative machine subtotalling $1766 (which will go down after the 22nd). But I'd like to run it by you guys first to ask for advice/suggestions. A couple months ago, I knew absolutely jack about picking parts or what would even be required. But through observing you guys' suggestions I believe I have at least a slight grasp on the basics.
But again, I'm still looking for last minute suggestions and advice. I'd really like to not spend anymore than I am now though. But I'm extremely open to just-as-good-but-cheaper alternatives to my current parts.
Thanks guys.
