I have, both mac pros, and the fancy imacs where you take the front glass off. It's really not that hard, you just have to deal with the ducting.
Exactly. Macs really aren't that hard to take apart, just, obviously, be careful xD

mwahahaha
I've done that plenty of times before. I like to call myself a REAL Apple Genius, not any of this fake shit. I can repair Macs very well, and I don't charge a dime for my services

Actually, I do, but I make it cheap, much cheaper. To be honest, people go to me because Apple charges too much for repairs after warranty is over, so I'm planning on gathering all the money I make at the end of 2013 from repairs and donating it to Apple.

so finally bit the bullet and bought all the stuff, I'll let you know how it goes.
So got everything in except the power supply, would it be ok to start putting it together or should I wait til I get everything in.

Also, sorry for the bump, but I'm seeing conflicting calls, magnetic screwdrivers, nay or yay?

They're not magnetic enough to cause any harm, all my precision screwdrivers are magnetic and I've never had a problem.

Thanks for your help sir, it's actually become a family project over here. My dad and lil brother (who won't actually be touching any components) will be putting it together once the power supply arrives.
