So here's something that I'm hoping there's some dumb little trick that makes this easier…
I've built my first entertainment center, (will post pics soon as I can), but it's come out fairly well. Birch plywood with Maple face frame. I got the doors on the sides and everything. Now, here's the catch… (pun intended).
I'm going to attach the magnetic catches on the top of the face frame. But I'm not sure how I'm going to easily get the screws into the back of the face frame as it's going to be a real pain to get pack there. I've already put the back on the cabinet. And just maybe I can get my big fat head a bit into the cabinet and still be able to see drill, but… there's just got to be an easier way.
This would be easier to describe with pics, which I'll try to get later. But basically I'm just trying to put the magnet on the door, (easy), and the strike plate hanging down from the face frame; with the back part of the strike plate installed on the back side of the face frame, which apparently requirers serious contortions to get the pilot holes drilled, unless there's a sneaky tip here.
Thanks,
Scott
