K3 Small Blank Panel

[Todd Fonstad]

Greetings,

I am slowly working on K3 #1934 and have hit a snag on p. 25 of the K3 Kit
Assembly Manual. I am about to install the KIO3 interface and, as the KXV3
option is backordered, I am instructed to "mount the small blank panel" on
the rear panel (Fig. 31). However, after having spent an hour going through
everything (I think), including all the mailing boxes and packaging
materials, I just can't find the dang thing! Does anyone recall where this
little critter might have been hiding in your kit material? Please respond
directly, as I receive postings in digest form, and I would like to get a
few hours of building in yet this evening.

Maybe it wasn't included because your order included the KXV3, even
though it's back-ordered. That panel was not included in my kit, but
my KXV3 was shipped with the K3 kit.

Ahem...

As Gilda Radner was fond of saying, "Never mind!" I do have the KXV3 in hand
after all (and thus have no need of the small blank panel), so I'll turn
tail and creep back down into the basement to continue assembly.

There, the mandatory one mistake is out of the way with clear sailing
ahead....

If you're not making mistakes and all tacks are "clear sailing" then you are
obviously not living your life to the fullest. Sail on but keep it on the
edge.
