I forgot how frustrating working with perforated board can be. Things end up bigger than hoped-for as components cover holes that could be used. Fortunately I caught this at the design stage.

Also, fixturing is tricky, and this slowed progress quite a bit. Rather than drill new holes, I only want to make mods on this unit that are 100% reversible. The board needs to be secure, otherwise something nasty might happen, but it needs more thought. I mocked up a number of possible support bracket designs using card, but they will either be hard to install, or too flimsy for comfort. A few ideas are brewing, but time ran out yesterday.

Cheers

Ed

I don't hold with furniture that talks.
