Velcro!

Velcro is great & will be plenty strong to hold your panel in place.

There might be difficulty in removing your Velcroed-on panel, however, depending on how you set things up.

Velcro is difficult to pull apart when you're pull the 2 halves straight apart from each other (in a direction normal to the plane of the Velcro).

Velcro comes apart very easily when you peel it (like Velcro sneaker "laces").

If you can remove your panel by a sort of tilting/rolling motion, you'll have better luck.


But, just go ahead & try it & find out--it's easy to test it out!


Good luck--sounds like a great idea.

Do it says this old timer.

If you dont like the results it was less destructive then mounting clamps and such.

Velcro works just fine.  To assist you in remove a velcro'd CP...use a credit card to slide between the layers and detach, works quick that way.

Just wanted to say thanks to all who responded. Definitely gonna try some different set ups with it to see which works best.

Velcro works very well for mounting a cp. I'm building a modular panel like Doc's, but didn't want the hassel of aligning dowl pins and holes. I went into it thinking it might not work, but all the panels hold securely. Just make sure you prime/paint the MDF where the Velcro will stick to.
