my control panel is 3/4 i cut out the slot a bit off center so that the t molding covers the plexi. now iam not sure what to do with the part underneath the tmolding, is it suppose to be chamfered? i tried on scrap pieces using a chamfer bit.. but diddnt like the way it was looking.. anyone have pictures of this? |

its a 45 degree chamfer bit.. should i be using somthing different? |

I am not sure what you mean by "part underneath the tmolding" If you upload a picture it may help. You should not have to chamfer beneath common flat t-molding; are you using a "lipped" type of t-molding to retain plexi at the edges or something? |

Yeah, you can simply chamfer it. What some people did as another option was to use 1/2 inch wood for the CP instead of 3/4 so that that the t-molding covers the wood and the plexi. This way there is no extra lip of wood to deal with. |

If you do then wouldn't that leave the piece of wood be pretty week? |
