I like the MDF backing plate on the faceplate allowing him to do the whole edge and even chamfer the back side.

Sound business advice.
The trick; allow others to retain "can't" in their vocabulary.

Then "can't" can = $$

Absolutely, my neighbor the mechanic welder machinist seems to find something almost every week that fit in the not able to do this himself category so I wind up having to save the day for him. It has gotten to the point that some of his customers know he is going to bring what ever it is to me so they just drop their problem off at my door step for me to repair then I bill my neighbor and let him collect from the customer. That way I am not siphoning his customers away from him I don't want them to become my customers, since I refuse to rig up portable again.
