  • Add different kinds of guide pin holes, since not everyone will want to use extra inserts for that.
  • Allow different locations and pin counts. Perhaps the default can be two pins where I have them now, but allow an arbitrary number with locations relative in X & Y to the center of the board. Percentages or exact distances is also probably reasonable.
  • Provide an option to dimple the base. This could be sketchy, and I likely wouldn't do it myself, but it should be easy to do and it's worth a try.

Hi Mike, so I was proposing during the base material cut process, that a very fine round rebate the exact diameter of the proposed dowel or insert , could be finely imprinted into the base by 0.1-0.2mm enough to get a precise positioning to match the corresponding index alignment holes in the core. I like your positioning method and adjustable qty "Perhaps the default can be two pins where I have them now, but allow an arbitrary number with locations relative in X & Y to the center of the board. Percentages or exact distances is also probably reasonable." this sounds very workable. Cheers Rich
