Check these pictures of the top. http://s645.photobucket.com/albums/uu171/mavenaz/?albumview=grid I made my front an back like Donovan. Then I cut the six rounded spacers. I attached the rounded spaces to the back piece with screws and glue. After this, I routed the top spacers so that after I glued the top, the acrylic could slide in as the top is dropped down onto the machine. The best way to do this is to take your 29" piece of acrylic and lay it on the top spacers and mark how much to route out. Then, I routed the front piece to make sure I got it right before glueing it to the rest of the top. This eliminated frustrations of cutting the acrylic and allows you to get away with dirty cuts. This is an optional method. Thanks for everything Donovan!
