How do you mount a Lumindisk?

Posting this here for more eyes to see .......

I bought one of those 12" Blue Lumindisks for my jukebox cabinet but I am unsure what the best way is for mounting it to my cabinet.    I was thinking I could just buy some clear plastic L-brakets (or something) and attach it that way, but before doing so, I wanted to hear what my other options would be..... thanks

drill two holes behind the lumidisk an use a small black zip tie to secure the lumidisk

Kevin Mullins:
Kinda depends on how you planned to use it on your juke......

Do you plan to cut a round hole and mount it from inside the cabinet? (like a window hole)
Do you plan to mount it completely on the outside the cabinet? (like hanging it on a wall)

Unclet,
I can help you with that.
There would be 2 ways to mount that I have seen. Some people cut a hole so the entire glass ring sits inside a countersunk portion of the wood so it lies flush.

For our games we prefer to make a hole all the way through the wood but smaller. This allows the lumindisk glass surface to lay outside the smaller hole and flat on top of the wood surface.
The hole is sized exactly the shape of the lumindisks round plastic housing so you can't see through the hole when it's mounted.

The result is a more appealing look IMO.

We devised a method to mount using pieces of wood and velcro. This allows you to easily take out the lumindisk from the outside for replacement if it ever breaks or you want to change the settings.

PM me your e-mail address and I will send several pics of how we mount the disks along with some brief instructions.

The method I use assumes the disks will be sitting inside of a speaker cover. Thats how I did mine:
