Fixed, I got them mixed up ^___^

honestly, while i think it would be really neat to give the option for costar, pokers already come with pcb mounted cherry stabilizers so that might be the best way to go.

Option added. My on concern with that is cherry stabilizers are meant to be stuck into PCB which I'm guessing is a different thickness than .063". So we get a thinner plate or have to drill/counter drill to the right thickness so that the cherry stabilizers will work. Or am I wrong?

Halverson:
Everything I have is pretty much cherry, so that's my vote

alaricljs:
eruh?  Cherry PCB stabs are what are on the poker, you give a rectangular clearance around it in the plate and you're done.  It could by acrylic thick enough to go from the PCB all the way up.  I am thousands of miles from home so I can't compare the plate/PCB Cherry stab mounts, but the PCB mount *should* fit through the plate mount hole without issue.  The funky shaped Cherry cutout is only needed for plate mount.
