What should be the thickness on the the
Control Panel
Screen
Marquee
-
I used:
Control Panel = 1/8"
Screen = 1/4"
Marquee = 1/8"

If you can, get some tempered glass for the screen. I used 1/4" glass. Lexan is never as clear as glass and is more likely to scratch and discolor over time. A custom square of tempered glass isn't all that pricey, and I think it's worth it.
For the other thicknesses, I used the same as Ginsu Victim.

I used for the moment 1/8 for the controller. Plexiglass, not Lexan. Very good result.
