After a lot of sanding and wood filler, the cassette is finally looking good and it is time to add the detail pieces. I cut out two grills for the sides of the cassette from 1/8" bass wood, and made the slots on the milling machine. Since 1/8" would have been too thick to just mount on the side, I also used the mill to counter sink the shape so only ~ 1/32" is exposed. Check it out!
I also started cutting out the shape for the front nose part (the one that houses the LED bar). It is made to fit inside the cassette, and then the top part fits on over the other part.
