I don't want to have to build the control panel box over again and this is a problem that I have been aware of for a bit of time now. I've been hoping that I could just come up with a solution, but I'm worried that my solution will cause too many problems. So, I am turning to you guys to help me out. Here is the problem:
When building the box I built it exactly how I wanted to... the problem was when I pulled the dimensions off of my 3D model I measured from the wrong point leaving me exactly .75" off. The width of the MDF that I'm using is also .75" so you can probably see where I went wrong. So now I need to figure out a way to raise up the top of my CP by that 3/4".
My initial thought was to take a piece of MDF and attach it to the underside of the CP as shown in this image.
But, I really don't like this solution. I have also thought about using chair levelers similar to this:
Of course the problem with that is MDF is not all that strong for putting screws in the side of the wood... I've been testing and splitting lots of wood. Does anyone have any good suggestions outside of having to rebuild the CP? I guess if it comes down to it I will rebuild the CP box... but I'd really like to avoid that.
