Guys,

Thank you for your kind words, this set has come out better than expected, especially given I made the power supply (I'm not a designer by any stretch) & the parts I used were 'what I had' ... in the coming days I hope to draw a schematic for the power supply, but life is seemingly getting in the way of such things at present ... but hopefully by the weekend, we'll have a drawing uploaded.

Regarding the polish for the cabinet, I used Meguairs Ultimate Compound for the initial 'buff-up' (The cabinet wasn't especially grubby, just flat-looking) and a couple of goes with Mr Sheen using a microfiber cloth throughout.
