   I was the same as you, in that I only ever swapped out cards, and never been a   
   "hardware" guy, really.  Even so, I wanted to at least try it once in my   
   lifetime.  I am still no expert on soldering, but I've was able to create   
   battery case and wires for a    
   IIgs, create an internal cable from motherboard to port cable for a external   
   10-key for a IIe, and I managed to build the RamWorks IIII kit from Reactive   
   Micro.     
      
   Stay with it, and you can do it!
