I'm 53, and have been doing projects since I was a young kid. Even had an oscope from a friend's amateur radio father in my bedroom as a kid.

One thing I have learned, though, is not to say "How hard could it be?"

Still, go for it...

Why not say "How hard could it be?"

Honestly so far I am surprised at how easy it is. The only difficult part is with a jigsaw cutting out the various holes and shapes for the vents and whatnot. Besides that it has been smooth sailing.
