Step 11: Display Mount Surface

The display mounting panel was made from 5mm clear Acrylic, I used the laser cutter to ensure accurate holes were cut, but this could be done by hand although the edges of the panel would have to be filed to ensure a smooth finish.

This panel holds the two LCDs via the M4 mounting screws attached to the breakout PCBs behind the LCDs, it also contains a hole which matches up with the one in the top of the arch for cables for the LCDs and the LED matrix, there are also four slots which hold the LED matrix frame via Acrylic mounting brackets.

The display mount panel is mounted on to the lower table surface via four M6 bolts, each bolt is hidden using an Aluminium spacer.
