13th April 2012
Today I did a lot of painting black, and breaking things. The boxes for the sides of the LED screens were to be covered in dibond on the exterior edge then painted black to finish them off. To apply dibond to MDF you use contact adhesive on both objects you wish to adhere. It's super sticky once it's ready so you have to be very careful when applying the dibond, making sure it's in exactly the right place.

Once the pieces have had dibond attached, you need to use a router to make sure the dibond is flush with the MDF surface.

I didn't take any further pictures as all I was doing was painting things black, but I also managed to drop one of these pieces and break it; but luckily for me it was easily repairable. I blame Friday 13th.
