If youre talking http://www.port23.co.uk/synthdiy/a100/ , then that was me.

As Dieter has said before, if you buy the parts new, then there really isnt a whole load of difference (if any) in cost between
buying all the parts, and buying a pre-built G6.

I escaped that, by buying surplus parts off ebay, and then making them up with new parts where i needed things different to that of
what id bought.  Also remember my cases rely somewhat on the surroundint skb cases for protection also (ie. i didnt bother with tops
/ bottoms)

And then you still need a psu, and the busses etc. too, so you need a solution to them too.

Basicaly, if youre into diy, and want someting specific (as i did) then its possible to make something cheaper, but, of course, itll
be a lot more effort (youll notice i had some of the pannels manipulated by a machineist).  If youre simply wanting to order a flat
pack case, new, from schroff, with all the parts you need, with a view to saving money, i suspect youll be supprised at how much it
all adds up to.

Cheers, Julian
