stuee Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Hi. Could someone tell me where i can buy a floor standing plastic front for the jukebox im making? Ideally it would be a blow molded so i can put led lights on the wood behind it then glue the front on and position where i want things. I cant find anywhere that does them or am i looking for the wrong name for them (Jukebox... front, fasica, mould, casing) thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocK-Ozla Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Sound Cool... well this would be an easy part to make at high school in tsc' .. or if you know companies that do it .. we have a few here in Adelaide that could Blow or even suck the plastic to a mould .. so try you local "yellow pages" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yardos1225 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I was going to attempt to make the same thing for a jukebox project. My plan was to get some 60mm steel tube rolled to the desired semi-circle shape, then weld a couple of straight pieces on to the semi-circle to form an extended U shape. Then cut Perspex to the 'approximate shape'. Then heat Perspex in the oven till ready for moulding, and mould over the tube using wooden 'pegs' to hold in shape until cooled... It's a lot of stuffing around, but the welding/rolling part would cost me nothing as I'm a boilermaker. Never got round to it due to other commitments. The other option I was going to try was to glue a heap of mdf or ply sheets together to form a 100mm thick piece of board. Then somehow cut a mould into the timber using a plunge router or CNC. Then drill a ton of small holes on the timber and make my own vac mould. Again, no time spare for me so no bingo yet...OR just pay a plastic fabricator to make something up for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
