Kick ass video! The editing is awesome!

I don't know if this is going to work, but I made a video (on my phone) of the finished product. It's on Facebook, so maybe not. I'll try to put it on youtube. https://www.facebook.com/pete.minns.37/videos/vb.1265926876/10210683827832942/?type=2&theater&notif_t=video_processed&notif_id=1478826894026810

Do you happen to have a parts list, including the router bit size?

Did you use backlit material or just standard 4mil vinyl? Or did you buy the sticker from one of the marquee websites?

I'm going to build one of these this summer. What sort of adhesive did you use on your marquis? What material is your marquis made from?

RetroGeek Computers says:

What blade did you use to cut the plastic?Β  I have a 180 teeth blade and was wondering if this would be a perfect blade for cutting plastic.Β  Also, do you leave the protective film on while cutting the plastic on the table saw?
