Could someone tell me how to attach the aluminum siding to the front wall on the handmade NES? the book is not very clear and i cant tell if you glue it to the out side edge of the case or on top of the actual plastic. thanks and i jsut rebuilt the case for mine, i still havnt even started to work with the electronics, mainly because i have none of them to even attemopt to work with.

you glue it on top of the plastic. First with super glue, the with epoxy after the super glule dries.

Oh, and i just want o make sure you are not using"aluminum siding", but the 3/4" and 1" aluminum Ben discusses in the book.

Just a word of caution - you might want to start working on your components as soon as possible. While Ben's instructions are great, how your project's "guts" turn out may vary a bit, and your case needs to accomodate for that. I worked forever building Ben's SNES-by-hand case, and when it came time to lining everything up, I ran into some serious headaches. Building the shell? That's great. As for exactly where you put screw-posts and whatnot, you'd be best off waiting until you got a system working.
