I don't know if you'd specifically want to, since that's used for holding up trees

Boy i feel like a jackass right about now haha im an idiot

What wire could i use for this project? And my future father in law gave me 2 ide cables to use.
And could i use wires what come out of a pc power supply?.

Hey, don't feel bad...it happens. I heard 24-26 gauge stranded wire is good for the standard wiring.

1 screen 50-100 ( psone screen is perfect for your first time)
2 system 25-75 (depending on what you use whether it is a snes mini, fc twin or retro duo
3 parts 25-75 ( you can check the list for the parts for the snes mini at benheck.com under kits and books tab)
4 tools, the best place i found to get a cheap multimeter and solder gun is at harborfreight.com others would be radio shack or ebay( maybe about 30-75 depending what you already have)
5 I can't think of anything else at the moment, if i miss anything my bad.

Any further questions just ask, everybody here is very helpful. Also congrats on might being a dad.
