Thanks for the info people, its good to here a few good ideas and that there is different ways to solve it, Im goint to be using under mounted joysticks so will probably go with the thinner MDF and find some Plexi that brings it up to the T molding width as that sounds easiest, thanks again  :applaud:

Fantastic, thats cleared it up, bevelled lower edge me thinks on 3/4 T molding with offset groove.  That will do me!!  :cheers:

I beveled the plexi because I forgot about this issue.  It looks fine and was easy enough to do with a bit of careful sanding.  If I had it to do over, I'd probably bevel the bottom and shift the slot up.  Or, if I could have found some, I'd have just used slightly thinner MDF and moved the slot up to center on the plexi-MDF combo.

Basically, good job thinking further ahead than I did!  Now you won't have to make a last minute recovery.   :cheers:
