I've spent an hour a night trying to get something done - it's difficult when my 'little darlings' pick up pieces and run off with them! Cab no. 1: Cab no. 2: The retaining pine bar across the top pulls the side panels together and acts as a lock for the top sloping panel. The barrel lock will interface with the bar to hold down the top and back. |

http://www.blackheathproducts.co.uk/ are a very good cheap laminate supplier, ~£30 for a 4m x 1.5m sheet! This Thread and This Thread are very useful resources on getting laminate within the UK for a sane price! |

Thanks parag0n (and Bender). I think I'm going to cover the both cabs with laminated vinyl from http://www.arcadestickers.co.uk/. Hot glue is crud. Both back doors have come apart, so They're being PVA'd together at the mo. I don't know whether the hot glue is not very good on MDF or not, but sticking it to pine 1/4 dowels doesn't work for me. :angry: |

Well, all the hot glue's off now :badmood:, time to wait for some new sanding disks to arrive. |

The holes are now drilled for the locks and air vents. I picked up a few vents (and cab handles as I bought a job lot), which have a leather texture to them. Very 80's :applaud:. |
