How do you fix a button hole screw-up?
<< < (2/2)
Jdurg:
That's the plan.  I plan on getting some posterboard to cover the wood itself, then some artwork for on top of the posterboard.  On top of that will be a 1/8" layer of Plexiglass/Lexan which will be the final top layer.  So I just need something to ensure that the button is secure.
tommy:
It should be fine, even if you have an open space on one side of the button under the overlay from moving it over the other three sides that are correct should be able to support the button just fine.

Also a very good option.    ;)

Or combine A and B.  Use the peg to fill most of the hole, and the bondo to cement it in firmly.
