Make everything look pretty and add a router... is that the assembly in a big nutshell?
Wow slow down rover don't go jumping to far in front already. Your nutshell version is a very very very simplified concept and in reality theres a little more to it than that.
Like I said before go do some home work and look at other build threads and designs to get an idea of whats required. This may seem like wasted time but it's not and will payoff when you are ready to start. If you skip this step you will end up with a lesser machine and big potential for wasted money.
