    Take your pick.

    It should just slide in rather easily. Ply isn't going to move/expand much.

    I wouldn't over-think it. Just leave yourself a bit of a gap -- whatever "a bit" means to you :)

    The vertical one(s) are before and after the bit.

    This poll is useless.

    ALL polls are useless.

    I think.

    Maybe I should start a poll, asking about the utility OF polls.

    I consider an offcut to be useless, when and if I've thrown it away.

    I'd say that's most of it.

    When they go to a commercial address, it's presumed that they'll drop MORE packages in FEWER stops, over a SHORTER distance.

    Fear of Shipping (I'm a former logistics guy....) was partly why I ordered two shorter rails, and a connector.
