Heheh yes, thats where I got the info from . I read through the gamma 2 and gamma 1 overview pages. Previously I wasnt 100% committed to this project because I wasnt sure how much everythign would end up costing or if I would get the funding for it from my parents or have to pony up myself. I know the soldering iron I have is so worn out and useless that I'd need to replace it and get a proper station before trying anything. I still need to learn how to read the schematic and whatnot too. Its still in the planning stages but now I at least know that the resistors, caps, and semiconductors cost about 50 bucks total from mouser. I still have to go through the miscellaneous parts list and total those up, plus I gotta print out the schematic and diagrams for the drill plates and give them to my dad. My friend offered to do the drilling for me to get the face plates but he wanted me to create it in Sketchup or some other CAD software first, and I dont know anything about CAD so thats a bit difficult for me to do. I might give it a whirl just for craps and giggles.
