This is an overview of the money I spent for building my cabinet.
When building one yourself, add around 10% for beer, cigarettes
etc., because it sure takes a while before you'll have it ready
as planned.
Another thing: double the figure you have in mind for spending
on the cabinet, and you might get close to what you really are
going to spend...
