Sourcing the CAD Files & Building the BOM

This stage was mostly about getting the physical side of RePSU figured out before moving further into the build.

I started by sourcing the CAD files for the enclosure and checking the different views to understand how everything would fit together. Having the enclosure laid out made it much easier to plan where the displays, banana sockets, buttons and other components would go.

Once the enclosure was taking shape, I started putting together the Bill of Materials (BOM). I went through each component needed for the build, recorded the quantity, found suitable parts, and added the approximate prices and purchase links. The current BOM includes the displays, banana sockets, fuses, buttons, fans, MOSFETs, and the 85W USB charger.

The estimated cost is around $35 USD, excluding the original ATX PSU and miscellaneous hardware.

This gives me a much clearer idea of what I actually need to source before starting the physical assembly.
