Button recommendations?

Then you flip it over and drill from the bottom with a larger bit (lining up the drill bit with the center of the hole). (I can't recall what size the bigger drill bit is, but I'll look when I get home). This allows the button to be placed on the top and the larger ring to be screwed on from the bottom.

The threaded ring (nut) on the OBSN is 1.415" diameter and 0.43" thick.
The maximum panel thickness you can attach an OBSN to is ~0.35" -- that allows about 3-4 threads to engage between the nut and button.

You could also first drill the 30 mm hole from the top and then expand it with a router in the bottom.

Route an area around your buttons on the back side. Done. Now use the buttons you like. :)

No need for a router... Just use a bigger drill bit as noted above. Same effect.
