Young, but I've been interested in electronics since I was 2-3 (playing floppy discs on windows 95), and I have learned a LOT of information over the years. And I have a step dad with a machine shop, and a computer expert for resources. I may be young, but I have a lot of faith in this.

I'm have a chance of getting SSI when i turn 18 because i have autism, and possibly a few other things.
General_Faliure:
I built my cab mostly from stuff i had lying around; plywood, old computer parts, which had cost me next to nothing.
I also use Linux as os.
Plywood isn't the best choice, it's difficult to get smooth, MDF would be better.
Most expensive where the joysticks and buttons which i bought from Ebay.
See the pictures in the link below.
I am currently redoing the paint job.
I learned a lot from this build, and am planning to do a new build in the near future.
