Assistance and measurements for building cab
« on: August 03, 2018, 08:59:39 pm »
I’m hoping by Monday to assemble my first donkey Kong-themed cab but I need to know the answers to 2 issues I’m having:

1. Whenever cutting the groove for T-molding on both side panels, what goes on in the backside? It looks like the wood thins out or their is no groove at all towards the back panel, very confusing. So how would I cut out the backside of the side panels?

2. For the control panel, what is the measurements for the slope of the 2 sides that hold up the controls panel at an angle? Not sure how steep it is.

Anyone know where to find a DK in eastern WA? Looking everywhere in this death valley of ours that I call Yukima Valley.
