Ok, this is my first time building an enclosure (or getting a BD, for that matter) and while I think I've planned for most everything, life has taught me there are ALWAYS contingencies.
Just ran smack into a contingency... I had planned on attaching slate stone backsplash tiles to the back (and possibly sides) of the inside of the enclosure--for... ambience/atmosphere. This will involve using a construction adhesive of some kind.
Here's the dilemma... I'm building this enclosure out of birch plywood, which is BEAUTIFUL, and it's (no pun intended) going against my grain to glue these tiles directly to the beautiful birch. I'm wondering if I should instead glue them to some kind of backer board, and if so, what, and how to attach that to the back of the enclosure. Or if I should just fuggedaboutit and glue the tile sheets directly to the enclosure back.
Any experiences/opinions?
