This thread may be of help cause I asked quite a lot of questions and got lots of good advice back. I looked for a pre made cab but couldn't find anyone other than Virtuapin from the U.S.  They have some great stuff there...really helpful, but unfortunately for me it was the shipping costs that forced me to build my own. If money is no issue, perhaps this would be an option. Others have found machines sold as spares and repair, and used those cabinets as a starting point. Lack of tools can be a sticking point when it comes to making your own...but then what better excuse to buy yourself some new tools <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Skills are something that can be learnt along the way...I certainly lacked some of the skills and knowledge before I started but soon picked up ways to do things. I filmed the whole build when I built mine...not sure if you've seen the videos but it does give some idea of the work involved. Good luck in whatever you decide... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
