Thanks for all the photos. Really fun to see the progress. Where do you buy your acrylic sheets? Must cost a fortune?

This may have already been addressed "if so oops", do you have plans to do LED lighting inside the cabinet?

Quoted from Mk1Mod0:

I am acquiring the acrylic locally as shipping makes getting it elsewhere too expensive. (It's freaking heavy!) Fortunately, I have a local vendor who has competitive pricing. The 3/4" sheet to make the case was just over $15 per square foot. My plan is to do the side graphics with sandblasting and light it up w/LEDs.

Yeah that stuff can get really expensive, but it will be worth it. Keep up the great work.

Quoted from vid1900:

How are you going to do the graphics?

Vinyl adhesive, sandblast, laser etch?

Looks amazing!

How about clear flippers with RGB LED's inside with clear super bands? lol
And clear buttons with LED's as well?
