Picked up a nice DMG over the weekend, first time taking it apart and putting it back together.
It powered on at the store and worked fine, took it apart to clean it and it's got no power.
Reassembled and cleaned the power areas and it came on, then after alittle bit of moving it around it powered off again.
Something I am doing wrong here? Some of the screws are stripped and the battery panels might not be making the correct power connection.

clean the battery contacts with sand paper and make sure the batteries aren't dead  -_-

Yeah brand new batteries, the power just goes out randomly. I'll try the sandpaper when i get the chance.

Yup- sandpaper and vinegar or rubbing alcohol on those contacts should clean it right up.

Maybe a dirty power switch, blow it out with some sort of compressed air
