Maybe the best thing here is building a small and simple MAME cab for yourself, one that doesn't require a ton of woodworking tools, so you have the accomplishment. Short term that could be done in short working sessions. By finishing that cab you would gain enough of the skills you lack right now so that tackling the big fancy project is a lot less daunting later on. |

Darn it, that makes sense...but boy, I'd sure like to start on the dream cab right off...I may have another way. A friend I've recently made has a workshop (says he needs to 'just clean it up, & it'll b ready again'), does some pretty incredible work himself, & says he'd help me with my project I haven't had a chance to show him just what I'm after, though...lol. He might change his mind when he finds out. |

Whatever happened with this? I just read the thread today. |

Sorry, I haven't been around for a while, real life has gotten in the way. I've finally realized that I've got to focus on getting an income--our savings continue to slip away, & I do not want them to run dry--that money was for our future. So what fly speck of free time I have I've been using to get our basement converted into an apartment. The money we should b able to earn from it should balance our budget, & maybe even provide a little more for savings. As for the trust fund, I finally became convinced that there's simply no way to do it the way I wanted. In the thread that 'inspired' this 1, I finally simply posted contact info for anyone who thinks they can trust me to send money. All I can offer is a promise that it'll go only to Harrison. & so things kinda stalled out there. I still have a hard time believing there's no way to do this--if anyone has any ideas, please share (why didn't I think of this sooner?!). |
