the guy has a series of videos that show you step by step how to build a CNC. thing that stopping me is the price of project. he estimated he spent around $150 on materials and he is still calculating the electronic side of it. i did a little research and found a kit from Hobbycnc for a $350 CNC kit. all things include it might be a little over my budget..
another project i want to throw in the salsa bowl is a PC gaming chair which arised from THIS thread. a nice feature would be a sort of tray that could swap out peripherals so can i go from a keyboard/mouse to a flight simulator, then to a car racing setup. one thing that would be mandatory for this thing would be that it could all taken apart easily and put back together with out a sweat. it would suck if i built this thing in my garage and couldn't get it past the doorway into my house
