We are also planning another modification which will adversely affect the
strength of the tabletops.  We plan to drill four ~5/8" holes 10" in from
each corner of the tables for the purpose of feeding wires down to
transformers, RCXes, and battery boxes without having to run them all the

automation and previously the wires have been a real eyesore. This year they
were almost invisible even though there were far more of them.
