[QUOTE="Friko, post: 5273189, member: 25207"] I've been working on the display, which is also just temporarily installed. I don't like that it's just bare and vulnerable. I was initially hoping to apply a red film over the display. However, this proved annoying to do if not impossible with the effort I wanted to apply to it. I tried using UV resin as a means of adhesion, but I quickly found out that the red film blocked out the UV light to cure it. So, then I tried clear nail polish, which I have used as an adhesive in other projects. Another failure. However, my niece, unknowingly donated a Lego window piece that would be perfect for this part. With a bit of trimming it was a decent fit. I foolishly attempted to adhere the red film to it with 1st the UV resin, then the nail polish. Both failures again, however, upon removing the nail polish attempt it left a nasty texture that works perfectly for the look I'm going. So, happy accident on my end. I'm calling the display finished at this point. [/QUOTE]
