well i drilled through my lexan fine and it all looks great, but i just noticed that the hole that the carriage bolt is supposed to go through (the ones on the four corners) when aligned with the wooden cp underneath, will end up having no place to go through! the hole is lined up with the edges of the box of the cp. understand? so instead of the carriage bolts going through the lexan and cp to the underside outside of the box which holds all the wires and stuff....its lined up to go into the wood of the box! so anyway, if you dont understand, my question is...is there anyway to secure the lexan with another type of screw or bolt or something that doesnt require me screwing on a nut on the other side? should i use glue? would that hold it in place? |

You've already got holes. Why not use wood screws? |
| hulkster:
the holes through the lexan are like 3/8"...i was going to put carriage bolts through them...will wood screws cover the hole like the carriage bolts do, or what? also, i dont want to use wood screws that go all the way through and attach to my cp box, cuz then...how would i be able to get to my controls if i needed to? |
| AlanS17:
You could find a screw with a 3/8" head that would be flush with the surface of the lexan. And if you need to get to your controls then take your screws out. I know you have a screwdriver. :P |
