Hey man! Thanks for the great vid! If I could make 1 suggestion. Use pvc glue. Yep, the stuff you use for the sprinklers. It will absolutely chemically weld all the panels together so well that the screws become redundant. The track as well. (providing it is a pvc track). Happy herpin' and much Love.....Coop.
You want to size it where the track is the same or thinner than your front board. The glass track then determines what size glass you need. If you are using glass you already have you can work backwards if the track that fits your glass is not thicker than your bottom board.
I put a 1x2 all the way around 2 inches below the top. I put a stainless steel screen on top of that and screwed it down. This left me an inch and a half for my led lights to hide in but you could put other types of lights up there. You can make that area deeper and put a door on the front to make a canopy. This PVC board is very much like wood and gives you a ton of flexibility. You can sand it, paint it, drill it, etc just like wood and any design you can do in wood you can probably do with this stuff.
@@robdumond2634 I get it, but in the same aspect, you offered no value with your comment either. You could have asked for further information. The platform is agnostic to each individual, he’s obviously free to do as he wants. I learned something 🤷♂️

What is the track you used and size of glass
You want to size it where the track is the same or thinner than your front board. The glass track then determines what size glass you need. If you are using glass you already have you can work backwards if the track that fits your glass is not thicker than your bottom board.
How do you install light fixtures for it
I put a 1x2 all the way around 2 inches below the top. I put a stainless steel screen on top of that and screwed it down.

It's difficult not to be pissed that no tag or reference to your materials is offered.
Entitled much? A simple google search will provide you dozens of options.
