Build the AquaPi from Parts

Save some money and buy the parts yourself and assemble it yourself! The best DIY experience! This is a quick guide and may not be fully detailed,, because you're doing it yourself, you may already know what you're doing, and as such, support is limited. Do this at your own risk of equipment failure.
