Okay, revised list (I'll just order from allelectronics once I have confirmation I'm good ... Rat Shack here is teh sux):

SPST N.O. MOMENTARY PUSHBUTTON -> OK
5 VDC 1 AMP SWITCHING POWER SUPPLY -> OK
10 OHM 1/4 WATT -> 10K Ohm 1/4W
112 OHM 3 WATT SAND -> whatfor do you need this one?
10K LINEAR PC MOUNT POT -> OK
500 OHM SQ. TRIM POT -> 500 ohm is OK but what means SQ.?
0.1UF DIP CAPACITOR -> OK
36 PIN FEMALE CONNECTOR, PC MOUNT -> not PC (Printed Circuit) mount, but solder version...
RJ-45 CORD COUPLER, STRAIGHT THROUGH FOR DATA
6' CABLE WITH RJ-45 CONNECTORS -> I would remove the RJ connector from the PSU and replace it by suitable connectors (male for the cable, female chassis to mount on your CD assembly.
GMA FUSE HOLDER, PC MOUNT -> OK
1/2 AMP 3AG FUSE -> OK
SOLDERABLE PERF BOARD -> OK

Think that'll do the trick? I assume I'll use the same pinout on the centronix connector, just moving the other end to the appropriate pin, and that this allows me to use a printer cable, right?

edit: thinking 16 gauge wire throughout ... the wire just slides into the holes of the centronix conn, right?
See my remarks in your quote.

To do the conversion from DB25 to Centronics, use my schematic and connect the right signals from the LCD to the right signals (and pin numbers) on the Centronics female connector.
