Looking good, Jason. Sorry to hear about the setback. That's why I try never to hand-work acrylic -- it's a royal PITA. Better to use styrene if you want to make parts by hand. It is always best to laser-cut acrylic.

But, laser-cut has its challenges as well. For example, the panel will tend to snap at the engraved lines. And, the engine lid just happens to have some lines that will cause very large portions of it to snap right off. I lost an entire panel because it broke in two during shipping. That's why it's best to laminate a scribed panel onto another panel to support it and help keep it from bending. Any bending and -- SNAP!
