    Just thought you should know how epic this build is looking. Acrylic fabrication is a bitch, isn't it? Worth it though. You're awesome.

    I do hope you've watched the TappPlastics tutorials on how to bond acrylic to itself with no visible join (go visit Tapp Plastics for many more ideas and techniques)

    Judging by the display cases for our Oscar and other production detritus we have here, they've barely read the instructions on the side of a superglue packet.

    Well with my design I won't need any glue, the 'enclosure' is going to stay open sided like it is now. BUT! Being informed never hurts, thanks for the video!

    I love how they tell you to put your safety glasses on after they've poured the cement into the applicator bottle. And halfway through he's not wearing gloves anymore.

    I can't wait to finish it up, I have the image in my head of what I wanted it to look like and so far it's coming together really well!

    Once I work out the bugs and finish getting it sorted, i'll work on upgrading parts. This will be a work-in-progress project for sure. That being said, I like the Innofader!
