One of the two pieces is the SPEAKER PANEL F, where you mount your speakers. Speaker mounting patterns and sizes vary widely so you will have to determine the size of the holes to cut for them and how to mount them. You should cut the holes for these now.
The other is TOP PANEL F and is the top panel of the machine.
[ ] Using your framing square, place one side flush with the ‘monitor edge’ of the cabinet. The corner of the framing square should be right in the corner where the monitor edge meets the control panel. Clamp the framing square down in this position.
(see illustration on the right)
Use a pencil and mark a line along the bottom edge of the framing square from front to back. This will be your reference line for the TV shelf. Also mark a line on the inside edge of the framing square. This is how far back you mount the shelf.
(about 1 1/2”)
Translate the bottom reference line to the outside of the cabinet as well so you know where to drive your screws by putting the framing square in the same position on the outside of the cabinet.
[ ] Screw down two of the 1 1/2” blocks along your reference line as shown. I would recommend wood blocks here rather than l-brackets. Keep the tops of the blocks aligned with the angle of the line. Repeat this on the other side of the cabinet.
Set the SHELF PANEL F onto the blocks. The front edge should meet the pencil vertical pencil line along the monitor edge of the side panel. Glue and screw down one the SHELF PANEL F panel onto the blocks. (see picture)
