[Elecraft] KPA100 Shield

[Russ WD5RS]

I was checking the fit of the shield on the KPA100 project that I'm building for K2 #6997 and found that the shield holes are off by the thickness of the back panel. If I match the back edge of the shield with the back edge of the back panel, all 7 holes match exactly, but the back standoffs are too short to reach the shield. If I place the shield against the inside of the panel, then the holes don't match up. 

I have the drill press attachment for my Dremel tool. Should I slot the holes so the shield sits flat on the standoffs? Or am I misreading how the shield is supposed to fit on the standoffs? It lays perfectly flat on the standoffs as long as the holes don't match up.

Thanks.
