What's up guys! So it's been a few months since my last video, but I just wanted to share what I consider to be one of the best anniversary presents a hacker/modder/maker could ever receive!

That's right, for my 10th Anniversary back in June, my awesome wife Amanda, really surprised me with this set-up! Of course she didn't realize there was nearly a 3 months wait and it didn't arrive until mid August, but I'm not complaining, I love this thing!

Now, as far as this video goes, it's taken about 7 weeks to get to this point and it goes quite a bit outside my normal range of content. But honestly, all I wanted to do was have fun with it and not make it the typical Unboxing/Assembly kind of video.

I have no doubt the "attempted" humor will fall flat in a lot of places, but I didn't really care and just really enjoyed trolling myself in the 2nd part of the video.

So that said, this is not a technical video of how to put this together step-by-step. It's more like my experiences and an example of what "not" to do in some cases.

I've included time stamps below and will probably be updating this description in the future with other crap I forgot to include the first time.

But as always, I hope you enjoy!
