Subject: Re: [motmpanels] Stooge Panel / Oakley Board fit issue?

From: Larry Hendry <hendrysr@...>

This is not a Stooge panel issue, but an ANY panel issue associated
with some Oakley boards. Some of the Oakley boards extend above the
limit that Paul established for his PCBs from the top. Normally they
work great with rack rails. You will find with wood cabinets it is
more of a problem. For this reason, I check my Oakley PCBs and often
mount the pots off board using a Stooge bracket.

I have never understood why Tony does this. The only way to solve it
with panels is to set the pots off of the normal MOTM grid. No one
wants that as far as we know.
