Excellent!  Thanks very much for the info, Bob.  I checked with that 
vendor and that is definitely the way I'll go.  One more thing, did you 
use 1/2" plywood? I had planned on using 3/4", but I noticed the stud 
was 11/16", so that wouldn't work.

Thanks again and best of luck on the 20V.  I have a long way to go on 
this BT-20 and then have to start on the BTA-1R2.  Nothing but fun!
