Top and a lick of paint

First thing completed today was the console deck frame:

 

 

Then there was a bit of clean-up of the edges to be done, they are planed flush with the sides.

With the frame complete the top can be measured exactly and cut to size. I marked up some layout lines on the control surface, and freehanded some curves on the front:

The last thing today was the slot for the t-moulding, and I painted the edge of the top in preparation for the application of the top vinyl – the last step before I can make the holes and cut-outs for the controls, after that I can take the top home and wire up the controls at home.

Feels good to get a bit of paint on the thing

Next time will be marking out and drilling for the controls, here is the layout for the deck:
