Anyone have and good ideas for keeping the doors on the Rostock base closed? The door my RAMBo is on is always partially open and driving me crazy!

I stacked little strips of painter tape to the ends of the two sliding edges, until the door stuck. Some painter tape along the lower edge also helps to make the door move more quietly.

My kit came with some tiny little pegs in the laser cut panels to wedge the doors shut. you could probably print something similar if you happen the throw out the pegs, or if your kit didn't come with.
You know the hole the hing of the door is in, right? On the opposite end of the door there should be holes as well (so you could potentially mount the door upside down, so it swings the opposite direction) - this is where the peg wedges.
Works like a charm!

Now that's cool! I literally just threw the scrap laser cut parts away 2 days ago, oh well! I did scrutinize them and don't recall seeing those parts. Should be easy to print though!
thanks,
