The CP is wired and the t-Molding is on. Now the project is starting to come alive  >:D

golfboyusa:

I cut out two pieces of MDF larger than the graphics. Then I  applied some spray on glue, attached the graphic, plexiglass and neon ring. Center them up on the cabinet and presto!

golfboyusa:

Rather than use laminate, I painted the back since no-one will see it. I added a cooling fan to the back of the unit as well. i don't think the LED monitor puts out much heat, but just to be on the safe side........

Well, as I'm wiring up the Ipac2 and the buttons I came to the realization that since there's no Optipac, I have no mouse button inputs. I found an old mouse, fired up the soldering gun and my first mouse hack is complete.

I finished the speaker grill. After I added the laminate and touched up the inside with some black paint, I stapled the covering to the back. I normally use a metal mesh wire and paint it black for the grill covering. When I was at the hardware store today I decided to try a dark screen normally used to replace screen doors. It's pretty dark and stretched nicely when I stapled it down.

I also use these nifty caps to cover any screws that weren't covered by laminate. It really adds a professional look to the cabinet.
