That sez it all. I know I mentioned this at some point, but I wanna get it on record here.

I don't like binding around the continous wood plates -it interferes with the purpose, in my mind.

I don't like the way it looks... I want the continous wood plates to fit in as much as possible, with as little disruption as possible.

The point is to disguise/minimize noticing the electronics plates -and highlighting them... highlights them!

Binding is not our first choice either, and you'll notice most of them don't include it. Our batting average is really good on this matter.

On rare occassions, the fit isn't as good as we like, and the binding is added. Of course, it's also done at the customer's request.

In any event, you'll know as soon as the plates are made (that means after the plywood is assembled) how well the fit is.
