Thanks Jason. I considered the UAII Kit. In fact I really like the way it looks. That said, I really wanted to see if I could make this myself. Again, I was brand new at woodworking before this started and I have already learned a tremendous amount.
Cheers.

To me this explains exactly why I'd rather build my own. All my materials and tools cost almost half the price, and now I have tools that I can use on future projects. Not to mention, it's fun to have the experience of building it. It's also much more gratifying. It'll be great to tell friends and relatives that I built it from scratch.
Project's looking good so far, Ace. I really like that CP design. How did you create that?
Loki:
Looks good so far! :)
And I agree, a cab you build yourself is a lot better then a IKEA cab ^^

Thanks guys. I appreciate it.
Bremil,
The CP layout was made using Visio and I can upload the file if you would like it.
A far as the CPO, I can't take any credit for the artwork since that was all Scott at MameMarquees. I saw something I kind of liked on his website but not exactly. So I sent him an email and told him what I wanted it to look like and he made it. I would highly recommend them!

Could you please upload the visio file. I really like your layout.
