I'm a little surprised how red that toner turned out. I'll keep that in mind for future projects.

The round holes were drilled with Forstner bits. The large opening and the square hole were cut with a scroll saw. I then made a jig with a rectangular opening and used a laminate trimmer in a router to clean up the square hole.

I then used the router on the table saw's router table to clean up the straight sections of the CRT bezel hole. I had to touch up a couple of places on the curved sections by hand with the router.

It did come out pretty red, but the red was accentuated in the outside photo because the sun was setting on the horizon.
