Great!  Thanks for the info.

My first two sticks I have built from Oak, but on the second one (for a friend) we painted it.  If Im not going to stain or dye, I figure it might as well be MDF.  I dont care for any woodgrain to show on a painted box.

Thanks again for the information!

Stunning :o

Wouldn't this look better without plexi on top though? I assume the PU coat would be tough enough.

Timoe:
But then I wouldn't have had an excuse to use the plexiglass screws  ;D


The whole style is sort of a blend.  Exotic hardwood, polished clear plexi (top, bottom, buttons, joystick) and japanese style.  Plus the customer has the option of art or decoration on the inside of the plexi.  :dunno

Ehh... I wouldn't put art on that, not with that woodgrain pattern on top.  8)
