Mission Control Project: 5 years on, what to do with the leftovers?
<< < (142/362) > >>
Pixelhugger:
Here is the bullnose after sanding to 400grit. There are some router tracks here and there in the MDF as I made several passes to knock down some high spots. I'll sand those out. ::)
Pixelhugger:
And the result. These reflective things are really hard to capture in a picture (see token thread  ;)) You can see how clear the edge polishes at the bottom of the hole in the second pic. There you are actually looking through the polished face. Clear as glass.

Yellow. But in retrospect (and for the rest of the cabinet glue up) I'd use something slower setting. I just can't take the stress!

Thats why I asked... when you said "run like mad" you made me curious.
Pixelhugger:
Well, it was run like mad for two reasons-

1. The class was ending and I was about to get locked out. :P
2. I wasn't sure how much setting could happen before it'd leave a film (or worse) on the plexi. After the polishing on the lexan I was really concerned about having to polish any large areas on the plexi. I just didn't know if semi-set glue could be removed.
