the goal for the top is to have the "glass" about 1/8" clearance to an even line with the front/rear, the "glass" can be cut at any angle for the edges. the way this is going to get done accurately is to have the "glass" cut to the size/shape i need. the first one will be slightly oversized than needed so i can trim to the exact specs after the thermal forming for the first actuall top. when it goes in the oven, weighted flat panels will use gravity to form the edges leaving it undeformed.
the frame will be a slick aluminum welded triangularly and boxed, if we can get what's in my head copied to aluminum it's going to pretty badass.
