Re: Building a Console Electronics Mounting Tray
Back to the question at hand. How do you want to trim it out?
1st I'd remove the teak and glass and keep it in tack. Someone would like to have it I'm sure.
I'd fashion a panel of 1/4in lauan that made a perfect fit of the inside of that opening. A layer of 4oz or 6oz glass cloth on each side will stiffen it and make it weather proof. Sand , prime and paint. Then I add cletes to the inside to fasten this pannel on. Be sure to seal the edges of the panel and the holes where you drill them. Use screws w/ the finish washers like on the teak to fasten it in to the clets. Clets in this case are just a block of wood. Something like 3/4X 1 1/4in or you could use angle alum to save more space. 1inX1in. You could trim it in a thin piece of teak, but I fear that you will need all the real estate you can get there. Depends on what size units you want to install.
