/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>971143
Now for the fun part. Remember your safety gogs and put down some cardboard to protect your mom's counter top.

This is the tricky part, because you have to drill through the screwholes and the remnants of the standoffs, and it's impossible to clamp it with a standard clamp due to the odd shape of the bracket.

1. Select a 5/32 drill bit. It's what I used because it's just under the size of the screw hole.
2. Do not put the bracket in your lap or on the counter or when there's even the slightest possibility of skewering something behind it. Keep fingers a good distance away. You cannot disconnect either half from the headset, either, because you will break shit. If the earcup shaft falls out and the earcup dangles, ignore it for now.
3. Drill, but do NOT drill through the stainless steel. THE DRILL **WILL** START SCREWING THROUGH THE PLASTIC AND WILL BURST THROUGH THE OTHER SIDE SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING, SO BE PREPARED. If this happens, back off, you're done with that hole.
4. Do all four holes (both halves seperately) this way.
5. You may wish to take a slightly bigger screwdriver and use it to clean up the plastic chowder around the holes and chamfer them a bit. You may also use it to ream the hole and clean it up a bit.
