Yes, and I may do it that way on some future sticks but for now I'm doing it like that for two reasons: a) it's easier and b) the t-molding looks pretty decent when
color coordinated with the artwork. I'll admit, a nice mitered corner is hard to beat.

I have yet to work with Laminate at all, but what about not making mitered corners, and just putting the laminate to cover the butt joint? For instance, laminate the long peices first, then glue the box together, then apply laminate on the short piece + ends of the longer pieces. Trim and be done.
Just asking because I dont know!
somunny:
Essentially finished the box today. Still need to apply the artwork and t-molding (waiting for delivery).
Lexan and control panel drilled.
Pic of the drilled control panel.
Installed the USB pass through. I'll paint the screws with some black nail polish later.
Attachine the top to the box.
Bondo can be a pain to work with sometimes but I like the way it comes out versus wood putty.
A few minutes with the palm sander and...
