The cover's fit is way too sloppy in the cavity routed with the cavity template set. The whole point of buying the cover and the cavity templates is so that they match perfectly. The cover is undersized over a sixteenth of an inch in some spots, and even worse, it's not consistently undersized around the whole shape. So you can't even use a not-quite-flush bit with the cavity template in order to match the cover. Basically, I had to route a copy of this cover with a 1/16 larger bearing, and then sand extensively to make it fit the cavity.
Used with SM's templates this cover fit like socks on a rooster. I wish SM offered this cover in exotic woods. :)
It looks great and feels strong. Size is good too, letting you cover a nice sized cavity. I had plenty of room to wire a toggle switch and 4 push/pull pots.
Great look, and the perfect thickness to make you feel it is strong.
