Sooooooooo,
Decided to take the plunge and build me one of these laser cutters. First step for me is to make a parts/source list so I can start placing orders.
Can someone look it over for me, let me know if you see any duplicates, missing items, or unneeded items?

Benedict,
I am also starting a build so an updated spreadsheet is very useful for me. Thanks for posting it! We can stay in touch and see if there are any parts where purchasing 2 pieces may make more sense.
As for your bill of materials; I'm a novice so nothing immediately jumps out at me except I don't see your XYZ stepper control system (Buildlog interface board, DSP, etc), water pump/cooling, skins, or compressed air. Additionally, I haven't had any luck in finding a place to buy the buildlog.net specific parts. The kits store page has been down and I don't want to pester BDring. Alot of the parts can be sourced elsewhere but there are a fair amount of fabbed parts on that list so let me know if you find a source.
Thanks and good luck!
