I don't always order G-10, but when I do, I order the wrong size turrets to go with it. Stay solderless, my friends...

laughing at your post man, not your pain!

That's one bonehead name, but that ain't me any more...no sir, no way

Yeah, it's been a not-so-good week for me and ordering stuff. Earlier, I ordered a bunch of cigar supplies for a buddy as a housewarming present. The one thing they forgot to send? The humidor...kinda important. At least this one was my own mistake. I added two items to the cart, and deleted the wrong one...On the bright side, once I finally order the new material/turrets to match what I've got, I'll have enough for twice as many projects!

When faced with thick G10 and skinny eyelets, I have drilled part way thru the back of the board, using a bit that gives me a flat floor, to accommodate the eyelets.

That's pretty brilliant! I thought of trying to use my Safe-T-Planer to mill down the 1/8" G-10, but I said screw it and ordered the appropriate G-10 this morning. I may use your solution when I run out of 1/16", though!

Plus, no one will ever see that side of the board...and you didn't either!
