Marquee Template

Not much progress today. I decided that before gluing the front panel to the shell I should make the template for the marquee.... so that's what I did. It wasn't too bad but it definitely didn't come out perfect - good thing it doesn't have to be.

I measured the opening behind the black Plexiglas the best I could and cut out the shape with my router and circle cutting jig. I had to do quite a bit of sanding to get it to fit properly which is why I said it's not perfect.

I added the pencil line after putting the template in place and tracing around the opening. This is the outline of the visible part of the artwork - the only concern is making sure that the artwork is lined up before installing it.

More later.
