At the end of this day, I have finished design of the plexi parts and I am ready to finish cutting out parts tomorrow or Sunday. I also plan to prime everything.

So, any plans any selling these little suckers in a pre-cut kit form?

I do not have any plans to make kits. This is Mountain's design and I in no way intend to tread on that.
I picked up the final parts tonight at MicroCenter. I also finished toolpathing and drawing the remainder of the jukebox. Here is a couple pics of all the parts.

After seeing that CNC milling machine, I feel like I never want to build anything ever again. Suddenly everything felt, oh so impossible.. :cry:
But. I'm looking forward to seeing this thing ready :cheers:

I finally was able to sneak away from the house to get the plexi cut. It was quite the nerve racking experience. :o I was worried about the size of all the small holes, wether the acrylic would crack, and so on and so on. Well, it came out great I thought! Here are a couple of pics of the back of the bottom panel:
The panel includes a cat 5 hookup, an 1/8" jack for external speakers, rca outputs for external hookup, the power input, a power on button, and two switches. One switch is to switch between internal and external sound and the other is to turn the marquee light on and off.
The front of the juke came out well. I need to make a visit to Mountain to get some insight on how to polish this puppy up on the edges. The countersink on the back was .175" and the monitor fits like a glove:
The back came out well also. I probably should have just cut vent strips into the plexi, but I didn't trust that the machine would chip the acrylic or melt it, so I bought a plastic grill. Thus the big hole. I also included two usb ports on the back. Oh yeah, I also drilled 5, 1/8" holes 3/4" in to make the back removable to access everything:
I found out that my brother is not coming in to town until the 30th, so a little pressure is off. That doesn't mean I plan on slowing down this week though. :cheers:
