Alright, so I finally finished mine. I had to put it aside for a few days because I was getting too frustrated trying to actually solder the wires around the outside. I probably should have just ordered better helping hands because it probably wouldn't have been as bad but I didn't think about it until I was mostly done. The solder looks like crap, but with the lights on and in the shelf you can't really tell. I still may order another one though and just do it with the fake "solder' bumps that it comes with. Also, the case is kind of crappy, I'll probably want to source or make an upgraded acrylic one at some point in the future. All in all for less than $70 (less if you just get the arc and not the display), it's not a bad deal though.
