Finishing the bezel and mounting the LCD

A small update to keep things rolling.

I finished sanding the bezel to a state I was quite happy with. The hole was then trimmed as it was slightly too big and the sides were uneven.

The LCD screen was glued in place, will be cleaned of glue smudges as the end.

Next, I am looking at connecting the LCD circuitry.
