Since the circle jig is finally complete I was able to remove most of the material in the jukebox leaving only the shell. I used the jig to cut out the arcs on the top of both the front and back panels. I also unscrewed the bottom panel and the interior spacers. It probably weighs less than a quarter of what it did before (it's light!). So far I just made rough cuts with the jigsaw - I will clean it up tonight and make it pretty.Pointless picture overload:
I did have a concern about whether the shape would hold once all of the material was removed but it does not seem to be an issue. Still, I'd like to get that front panel on as soon as possible just in case...
