I just reworked my 23' console with 1/2" Starboard also. I flush mounted electronics and a small storage with recessed clear door. It machines easy, just lay out your lines accurate, measure twice-cut once!!

When I make my outside cut's on a panel of it, I cut it just slightly larger than the finished size. This is done on a tablesaw. I then run it thru the jointer and it removes all the saw blade marks and makes it the finished size. No sanding.

As said for a inside hole cut. A template and guide bushing in a router.
