Securing Lexan to Control Panel

Pages: (1/3) > >>

Wiliamo:

I have my Control Panel all installed.  The buttons, Sticks,  etc... are holding down the Lexan to the CP.  When I attacth the T-Moding to the CP, how do you secure the edges of the Lexan to avoid lifting up.  I have a 8" area of nothing between the buttons and the bottom of the CP, to rest your hands and wrists.  The Lexan is not totally flat against with the CP near the T-Molding.

Thanks,
Wiliamo

I used screws at aprox. 1 cm (0.4") from the edge ... I like the result !


Brad Lee:

I used these, the middle item on the page, Binding Barrels with Screw, actually found em in the 'specialty hardware' bins at Home Depot. Used 1 at each corner of the CP, gives it a nice machined look, from the top all you see is the plain end of the assembly, almost like a rivet. Aluminum is the ones I found, but it looks like you can get brass, stainless, alum, black, or plastic to fit your look

Sasquatch!:

Black screws about 1/2" away from the edge.
