I have $600 for my DK JR Cabinet and $160 for my DK PCB. When I start to build my Nintendo Style Replica (if I can ever frind 5/8th MDF for anything even close I should be able to do a cabinet for $600 or so I may just buy a Popeye cabinet for $300 $400 and convert that. |

hrmm... let's see... since march 4th, i've gotten... 90$ in wood/mdf 25$ in hardware (drawer slide, screws, brackets) 120$ on a used 27" tv 112$ on a motherboard/cpu combo (i already had other items needed for pc) 23$ on logitech speakers 12$ on some new cooling fans for pc and cabinet 9$ for a marquee illuminator that's close to 400 bucks and that's not including a few tools and things (sandpaper, jigsaw blades, router bits, drywall square, just things that I needed but hadn't bought yet). I still need t-molding, primer/paint, pushbuttons, joysticks, trackball, spinner, encoder, etc... etc.. etc... I still haven't purchased things |

I don't have the itemized list being that I built it over two years ago, but I spent just over $3000. |

I figure it would be $1400 to reproduce. Some things would be cheaper (no trial and error this time) and some would be more expensive (can't count on getting the same freebies) from what I paid originally. I consider it worth every penny! ;D |

My last project came to a little over £1000, I was thinking this project would come to around £500 but ive nearly doubled that already with plenty still to go. As pcolson said its the new ideas that end up costing you as well as the overly expensive trips to the hardware store. Its good job I dont need to add machining time at work to my build or that would easily be £5k ;) |
