This is a fairly complete cost of building this rack. It excludes GP and any VST costs. But does include qwerty keyboard, monitor and cables. There was a fair amount of time building this, the zero cost items come from my vast scrap cable collection, and other peoples castoffs. The total build price was around £370.00
