Step 5Acrylic top time!
I used 1/4" clear plexi for my top. Please post up any other materials you might find interesting/try out!
You will need approximately 2' x 1' piece of plexi, and using the Adobe Illustrator file I have attached, you shouldn't have any problem at all. Laser the attached file (we have an Epilog 13 watt, I believe), and you'll have a sweet top ready to go.
I decided I wanted both sides to be translucent, not clear (where the LEDs are). I drew a line at both sides, and with an exacto cut the paper along this line. I then take the paper off, and with a fine grit sandpaper (emory paper) go at the inside of the acrylic.
