Hello from a newbie
« on: June 20, 2013, 07:23:35 AM »
Hello all,

I "won" one of Cen-Pen's $2K credits toward a chassis last year. I was pretty jazzed about the win at first, but after a lot of thought, decided to pass on it.

The win has inspired me to build my own.

So I'm scrounging parts, planning, reading old tech articles, taking notes and dreaming for now.

That is quite a lot to pass on, might take a look at this.
