Barry Barcrest:
I am thinking i might try your idea of mounting perspex onto the wood after my failed attempt at using vinyl. It's looking good, i will see how it looks with that protective paper off.

Looking really good! How did you cut such nice curves on the interior of the panels? I am debating on whether or not to make some sort of adjustable circle cutting jig but I don't really know how - it also seems like it would take a while to do... :cheers:

Actually, that wasnt my idea.
I saw it first in Mountain's thread.
Thanks for the kind comments!

I cut the curves with the same rig I made for my Rotating Monitor project:
I would like to build a better rig, like the one Mountain made for his projects:
I cut the inside ribs by making two cuts. First cut was outside radius and second cut I made by moving the pivot point 1 inch toward the router, which cut a smaller radius, resulting in a rib 1 inch wide.
This does take a lot of time, I which there was an easier way to do this.
javeryh:
I made a circle cutting jig but it requires me to drill a hole at the exact distance I want the radius to be (instead of an adjustable arm) so after a few projects there will be too many holes in the MDF. It's also not as precise.
I saw the one mountain made and it looks easy enough to build except I'm not sure how the knob tightening part works exactly. I think I'm going to give it a shot. :cheers:
