Project log................. vote on that

Okay I'm finally getting everything in to be able to start this log. I will say this right up front I am a broke college student so for me to buy things some times it can take me weeks to save up to be able to buy it. So that being said it will be a long extended log that probably will take me over a year to finish it to where I'm happy with it. I welcome any constructive comments and help you are willing to offer. When we start reading down the hardware list no I'm not loaded at all just blessed with what I have, and for everything that I have it was more then likely bought on sale, used, or I saved for weeks. And some parts I had some extreme luck in getting and I would not have without getting them the way they did and for those items I will post the story behind them when I get to those pictures. Now lets get on to the important stuff the hardware lists.

I will try and keep this up to date but I will be making this on three different websites so if I fall behind just haggle me a little for more pics...... Be warned some content of hardware may be XXX rated ;)
