Yup, the display goes in the front and then you can put a piece in to screw it to, but in my case it's such a snug fit I didn't have to. You can glue strips of acrylic to make sure it stays when you want it and you can make cross pieces to glue in the box to screw the screen to if needed. Cutti

BTW, if you're going or need to use a router, then use a piece of stock at least 1" larger than the face of the display and after you're routed the countersunk area and the opening, cut the surround down to size. Less chance of a router chatter or screw up on the larger/thicker piece of wood. Ho
