Here are some pics on what I've done so far today. Still need to sand it down and more hot glueing.
Pic1:
Here im showing the back piece being hot glued to the main frame
Pic 2: Frame side view
Pic3: Top view. Note how skinny/thin it is since im using foam board from home depot. Its .25" thick. I need to cut out a few sides to beef it up a bit before lamination.
