    Ok well I am currently working on the cabinet. The cabinet that was given to me by Terry was in pretty good shape overall.

    Quick update! Cleaned out the cabinet and disassembled all the metal pieces. Wiped it all down and took stock of what's needed. Still need to get a board set with Vs. SMB. Once I find and purchase the pcb I can test to see what's working/not working. Will update as much as I can. Next few weeks...
