Need some outside the box thinking... joining wood at right angle

See pic.
I think I've decided just to cut the holes a bit bigger on the bottom and work with what I have. I like the stability of it being one piece if it can be, I just feel having a hinge is gonna give it a little give (maybe not loads, but still some)
Still enough room to get to most things comfortably, just a bit tight on some of the edges

I didn't expect that. Hmm... The only thing I can think of is to have the bottom be detectable from the whole CP but attach the CP as a complete unit. I'd use something like this so that you can attach and detach the bottom without fear of loosening hole for the screw.

I have a bunch of them left over from my joy attachments. Thing is, I'd still need to leave a bit of the bottom in place for wrapping on to (you may not see in the pic but it curves at the bottom too), so I'm not sure in that situation I'd be any better off than what I have now - I have a bit of room to make my underside holes bigger yet still inside the cab frame, so think I'm going to do that and just deal with the tightness when fitting
The whole unit will come off, as it's just bolted to the back, and I'm yet to work out how I'm attaching my sides but thinking clips of some sort, maybe wing nuts (or possibly using the fixings you just said) so they easily can be removed from underneath - that way I can get them off to get leverage from the sides if needed too.
Probably not going to be a mid evening fix after a few beers, but will be easy enough

I think next time you build a cab you need to work this stuff out first LOL :lol

A) There isn't going to be a next time
B) Not really - this stuff doesnt affect the cab, only the control panel... which doesnt affect what's been done so far
and
C) This is following the OND plans pinned above - in those plans, the CP is just fixed, so I'm just trying to work things out as best as possible within the constraints I have.
