Full front viewHere is a full front view of the completed Jukebox. The control panel, amp mount, and sides are laminated with a "Formica" surface. The entire Jukebox is powered by a standard computer power supply although a slightly larger one modified with LED's.Mar 27, 2008

Close up of control panelHere is a closer look at the control panel with lighted buttons and the laptop LCD screen showing through the "Plexi-glass". The edges of the uprights are protected with stainless steel 2in. wide bands.Mar 27, 2008

Layout the control panelIn this picture I have taped paper and masking tape to the control panel so I can measure and layout the precise locations for the buttons on the main control panelMar 26, 2008

Backside of control panelThis is the back side of the control panel after I wired it up. I am using a KeyWiz-ST control interface from GroovyGameGear.com to interface the buttons with the computer. Mar 26, 2008

Mock up of electronicsI am currently fitting all of the electronics into the kiosk style JukeBox. All of the wires run in between the laminated uprights until they reach the computer or amp mounts. I routed 3/4" channels into the middle layer of the laminated uprights to accomodate the wires.Nov 21, 2006

Marking the holesAlthough difficult to see in this picture I actually sunk PVC "sleeves" insto the gravel and earth to mark the location of the golf green cups. After the concrete is poured I will simply insert a regulation cup into the sleeve. By the way these were actually purchased sleeves for this exact purpose as the inside dimension of standard PVC piping is not the right size for a cup.Nov 13, 2006

Putting up the formsI staked the 2x4 forms around the gravel base in preparation for the concrete. I did not create a level form, I actually pitched the forms in two different directions to create a slight slope on the finished golf green.Nov 13, 2006

Spreading the baseI had some limestone gravel delivered and I spread it around to the size of the golf green. This created a nice surface for the concrete.Nov 13, 2006

Finsished Golf Green - View 1I purchased a synthetic Golf Green from an online supplier and adhered it to the concrete using a special polyurethane safe adhesiveNov 13, 2006

Marking the locationAfter I had the property graded (this was a new lawn), I shoveled together an earth berm and spray painted the location of the golf green. Although this was a new lawn you obviously could build a golf green on an existing lawn by simply removing sod.Nov 13, 2006

Completed view from left shutter openLooking from the right at the completed playhouse. This picture shows one side of the windows shutters open. I actually installed a light and light switch inside the house. The light fit well into the "L" shape under the stairs; then the rest of the underside was covered with furring strips and then a sheet of plywood. A hole was cut into the plywood exposing the light - then the hole was covered with durable plexi-glass to protect the kids from actually touching a hot light bulb. The plywood ceiling was finally painted to finish it off. The kid's loved it.Nov 12, 2006

Rough construction of the playhouseMy son (2 years old at the time) is "helping" me erect the rough construction around the Under-The-Stairs Playhouse. I don't have a lot of pictures of the building process of this project as this was done many years ago in my first house.Nov 12, 2006

Completed view from rightLooking from the right at the completed playhouse. The white door (three feet tall) opens/closes like a cabinet door (no lockset). The blue window shutters open so the kids can peek-out.Nov 12, 2006

Mock up base descriptonThe base of the Jukebox is actually concrete sandwiched between two 3/4" particle board components. I chose to do this to give the Jukebox extra weight and stability. This was needed because of the unique curvature of the upgrights throws off the center of gravity - not anymore.Nov 12, 2006
01DSC01716.JPG
Beginning Mock UpJust starting the mock up of the Jukebox. I am using several layers, three to be exact, of particle board to created the laminated uprights (sides). I have routed two "T-slots" in the center board of the uprights, this slot will hold a 7/16" bolting system to fasten the uprights to the base.Nov 12, 2006
