Junction box support

As I mentioned, the junction box will need support to mount it to the top panel of the case. This was my next job.

I found a thick acrylic block that I cut into two pieces, filed, sanded and polished it to get this result

These blocks would be mounted to another small piece of red acrylic, which I marked up and drilled.

Back to my clear blocks - these needed four holes drilled in them: two top and two side.
