Hi Michael and Welcome! Glad you joined. There are lots of ways to avoid/minimize tech or at least make it not seem "techy" ... just do your research and you'll be fine!
Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)
Hello Michael and welcome! :D you have picked a great place to join there are many experts here to get you thru anything you may have issues with. I am 1 year in and have been truly thankful for all of the information on this forum!
