Trying to salvage my dress panels here at 1:30AM.....sigh......
Everyone with a tape measure: please verify that the distance,
center-to-center,
between holes in a 19" rack is 18 1/4". I'm 99% sure this is correct
<<<NOW>>
and that would indicate to me the source of error and probable Barlow scrap
heap.
I might get the machine shop to mill a slot where the hole would be and
touch-up the paint,
cheaper than the $397 I would have to donate to Barlow (and other Stooges).
What I think I did is put the hole 0.275" from the edge of the dress panel
instead of 0.375".
Probably couldn't read my own writing. Good thing I spent all that time in
EE grad school.
