Fujieagle's Kal clone build with pics

[jaspass]

I highly recommend purchasing at the very least his kit of parts. It will basically run you the same as trying to find them all yourself. I bought Kal's kit and finished my build about 6 weeks ago and couldn't be happier! I have also seen pics of the prebuilt units they sell, and the work looks top notch. Very clean lines and cabling work.

I have heard from others that it is almost the same price from Kal's kit as it is to source the parts yourself. I sourced them myself and it took months. It would be nice to have everything in one big box.



And I agree, the internal wiring is super neat. Nicely done! I wish I would have zip tied as I went.

If I did it again, I would buy the kit from Kal. Spent alot of time surfing the web and ordered a few wrong parts. In the end, I think I might have saved 100 bucks. Of course it is easier to sneak it past SWMBO a few parts at a time than to do it all at once.

There are a few things that I decided to build myself that I wish I had just purchased. The complete temp probes to my list.
