Step 3Chiseling and Final Millwork
Eventually, wires will need to pass between the main section and the valve section. With the drill press set for a 1/2" cutting depth (that is, a 1/2" deep cut into the material), use a 1/2" drill bit to cut out a valley on the BOTTOM of the wood case, between the large and small sections. Clean up the valley using a chisel.
With a 1/2" drill bit (preferably a Brad Point or Forster, though a regular bit should work), drill a hole into the notch on the side of the wood, where the power plug will eventually go. Work carefully and clamp the workpiece so it won't move - this is a tricky cut.
