Nice design and construction on the hood. Did you keep the hinges as you showed in your 3D render?

Thanks guys  It is still a little rough around the edges, but its comming along. I am a student at Clemson  haha. And yes the hinges are there, I will be sure to take some pictures of the back once I get the wood finished and the lights & cooling fan in.

JoyR - Welcome, and thanks  My girlfriend said the exact same thing, 'it looks really cute'
mnreefman - Haha, it looks kind of goofy for now, but the filler/sanding/stain is done today. Tommorow I will start the polyurethane junk.
