Grommets Grommets where are the Grommets?

AlanS17:
Get a grommet to fit 1/8". Cut a larger hole in your opening. Cut a hole the size you're looking for into a metal plate. Attach the metal plate to the hole. Tada.

CJK:
I am having the same problem. I think I'm going to get one of the grommets designed for metal panels, cut it in half, and epoxy one half to each side of the MDF panel. I'm using a rubber-coated cable clamp on the inside to prevent tension on the outlet box inside. (My cabinet's power comes from a heavy gauge line cord to an outlet box on the interior. A UPS is plugged into the outlet box, then everything inside -- computer, USB hubs, monitor, etc. -- is plugged into the UPS. Well, actually into a Bits Limited SmartStrip which is plugged into the UPS.)
