hello ,
The stuff what you said.

Once you've read through the stickies, and the Noob basics, you may find it helpful to join the mentor program.. They will assign you another member to help you move forward with your project.
You can also ask me for help too. PM me and we'll see what we can sort out. Remember, read those stickies.
STU.

THis project reminds me of a good friend of mine from my workplace, and something he would do for his girlfriend.

I will echo the sentiment, but adding more carrot and less stick.
If you simply ask us to walk you through the project, you may find it exceptionally difficult to accomplish because our methods might not match your available materials, workspace, et-cetera.

I think that if you peruse the various tutorial threads in this board, you will get an idea of the various *types* of fabrication that you can use for this build of yours, get a really good idea of exactly what you want to do and how to do it! In the long run, it'll be even easier and even more fun, with less drama and frustration.

THanks for visiting!
