======= Game Console Construction =======

**This is a high level view of the construction of the console**

  * The console "top" I wanted as 28" (71cm) X 11"(28cm)
  * I wanted an overhang of 1/2" (1.25cm) on the left/right/front and flush with the back.
  * Therefore, the sides are 10.5" (27.67cm) and the length is 27" (68.58cm)

Materials
  * MDF Board (I seriously hate this stuff and should have spent the extra $$$) - Hardware store
  * Plywood bottom - Hardware store
  * Plexiglass - Amazon
  * Hinges - Hardware store
  * Primer - Hardware store
  * Internal brackets for support - Hardware store
  * Rustoleum Gloss black (Hardware)
  * Rubber trim (red) - Amazon
  * Rubber padding for the bottom - Amazon

==== Cutting the pieces ====

Here's a pic of the pieces. Obviously you can do the math and cut as needed. Remember the bottom will be smaller as it needs to fit into the box.
