Hah. No, the SECOND one is 200 bucks. the first is the Novel 90, $155.
next question. The instructions for the Golden Age pre-wired kit (I just have the template, not the pre-assembled) shows cloth insulated wires and shielded wire in several locations, but the wiring included with the kit are plastic shielded. Should I use cloth insulated a cloth shielded as the GA pictures show, or will the plastic shielded suffice? I am planning on shielding the cavities with copper tape.
Electrically it doesn't matter. One kind of wire is as good as another.Quote:

What I like about plastic insulation is the price (I generally just repurpose it from old computer cables), and the colors. If the wiring harness is complex I draw it out with as many different colors as I need to keep it straight. Gauge doesn't matter since the current these wires carry is so minimal.
You can get cloth wiring in colors too, but it gets pricey, and it does not have much benefit other than the look and feel.
