Looking for design opinion.

I've considered an amp rack like you want. I was thinking of either taking a piece of frosted acrylic, painting it black, then either engraving or laser cutting the paint away to expose the frosted lines. Another option would be to screen print the black negative over some acrylic in such a way that the circuit lines would be masked off. Once the screen was removed, the acrylic would be black except for the lines.

There is a material that is acrylic with a top layer of a different color.

I'd never (to my knowledge) see it done this way and was thinking the same thing.
I got the Music in Motion hexagon router Template and was going to work that in as well. I may still.

I wonder if you could use say countertop laminate and adhere it to acrylic then router it out?
