[Elecraft] K2 Front Panel assembly question

[R Thompson]

Thanks,

    I spent almost 2 hours looking for the missing pieces, without
success.  There are several alternatives I can think of to use as
temporary spacers.  Fortunately this has been the only mishap during
assembly, and hopefully the last.
