Build an OND designed cab 'Metropolis'

vaderag!
Happy Friday my friend. I hope you're well.
Here's another quick question for you when you get a moment.
By design, the Top CP Panel is a few cm's longer than the Bottom CP Panel and causes this per the red arrow:

I studied your specs in metric to confirm you also made these cuts. For me it causes a small gap between cab and cp because it pushes against the cab (makes contact with the cab before the CP back piece does) preventing the back piece and cab back plate to connect flush together for bolting.
It's nothing major but was curious if you figured out what that was for.
Ond--feel free to opine.
Thanks guys as always.

Hey mate, happy to (try) help!
I'm not 100% sure
I don't remember having an overlap like that (and I definitely don't have it now)
I'd need to check, which I cant easily, but I think you've got the wood sandwiched and it should be 'tetrissed' like two L shapes
Gilrock:
I started at the beginning to find the drawings and the control panel appears to be on page 4 of the thread and the vertical pieces are shown as sandwiched not 2 L shapes and there is no overhang shown in the photo.
Gilrock:
I would double-check your measurements. The CP Top panel looks like it's supposed to be 1/8" longer than the bottom panel which is probably due to the angle but yours sure looks like its a lot more than 1/8" longer than the bottom.
ZTylerDurden717:
Thanks both of you!
Gilrock looks like you found the file, but I'll post it to confirm that the top is supposed to be 1/8th larger than the bottom:

I just measured it and I'm at about 1/8th. If I'm off it's about a 64th and definitely not more than a 32nd.

Which angle? Do you mean it's supposed to cover some of the angle on the beginning of the incline of the bezel as per this location, because I can see why that would make sense:
