Cabnet repair for added toggle switch - help
#1

The 41-280 cabinet I am working on had what seems to be a common power switch fix.

Bore a hole in the side of the cabinet and add a toggle switch.

The bush button switch has been temporarily fixed and will get the replacement written up on this Phorum. Will probably use the 4-40 screws referred to as if I was going to do it again.

Now to the hole left in the side of the case.

After a lot of thinking, the path being considered is using a gasket punch on some veneer, sticking the punching on the end of a dowel, sand to fit and gluing in place. May or not need a dab of filler depending on how good a job I manage fitting the punching.

Case has had the GoJo cleaning, but not the Old English scratch remover yet.

Anyone done a hole repair "Wow I got it right" or "I would never do that again"
