Just a smooth (well, not exactly) rounded edge..

My 3rd pair Penta's refurbished with new cloths and a selfmade perspex cover and stainless steel mirror panels (yes, again) for the amps.

For this I had to make something.πŸ€” Why not using a halogen lamp from a copy machine to do the bending of the perspex.😁

 

Leslie!!! Wow!! Very cool.

Best displays EVAR.

What a fine restoration!  Well done, Leslie.  πŸ€’

Thanks Evan & Rich! It really looks great but the "chamfered" thing Olly was talking about keeps my brains busyπŸ€”πŸ€”. I'll think I'm gonna give it a try...,

I wonder if you could take a sheet of clear plastic, add some heat, care and patience, and bend up a few inches all the way round the perimeter of the sheet and end up with a turntable dust cover.

To bend the Perplex is no problem, but you will never get the edges and corners right, at the corners you will have to glue, and you will allways be able to see the union, upper edges will be round and not square as org.
