Those are main components, things like audio cables, zip ties, drills etc i will not post here. You can always ask me for advise or help.
Building it is not easy and takes some time, but after finish satisfaction is awesome. During process of making Edward even my 9 old daughter helped me with soldering, connecting some modules ect, so don't be afraid to make your own Edward.
