Perhaps you are both having a bad day? 

I'm having a bad day.

My tooth really aches from the root canal and temporary crown yesterday.

Good call. 

Oh boy, been there, done that. OK, Kev, we will give you a pass. Hope you feel better soon.

I'm not understanding why this is so complicated.  Maybe boredom is alleviated by overthinking stuff.

After reading this thread I completely agree. 

Good analysis Douglas!

 

 

 

I'm not sure that I follow your objections, guys, or your rationale in this regard. I don't see where anybody is overthinking anything. Everyone is making suggetions to help the OP, and it seems that both of you are doing the same thing.

Well, I was poking a little fun at our intelligent and thoughtful, and very analytical, collegues.  Forgot to put the little smily face thingy.

We had a very similar discussion about overcomplicatizing soldering.  Same applies there, too.

In (partial) defense of wall-o-text firehose threads: I think it's valuable to get the different options 'out there' quickly so the people needing assistance, knowledge, enlightenment or whatever won't miss critical options.  If it's something they don't need (or don't like) they can hit the back button.

No different in a sense from healthy eating.  Good to have the vitamins, trace elements, and a proper mix of food groups ... but you can always opt to eat less, and you don't have to digest things your metabolism rejects...

Appreciate the thoughts guys.  I was just looking for best practices.  I decided to cut several pieces and layers of thicker cardstock and glue them under the portion I was concerned about.  I had a little PL300 left in my last tube so I went ahead and glued the piece down and placed my weights on it.  The card stock leveled it up nicely.  I will get around to the gaps at some point, and maybe I will just try using tape like some have suggested!
