Dave,
The nuts and lockwashers are not going to stay in place, you will have
to mount the side panel and then insert the screws. After that, put the
lockwashers on and then the nuts. It is not difficult, just a bit
"tedious".

Sorry to hit both Elecraft and Elecraft_K3 lists, but I do so in hopes
of finding the right person for some help.
I just received my K3 & P3 Gemsproducts side panels; they look quite
nice. I decided to start the installation with the K3 right side
panel first. I have run into a problem here installing it (the right
side panel); there are two transistors that use the panel as a heat
sink; I cannot think of a way to get the nuts and lock washers to stay
in place while re-assembling the unit. Do you have any suggestions?
Having a factory built K3, I have no idea how they accomplished that
in the first place, nor whether it might work in this case.
I have emailed Gemsproducts concerning this, but am turning to the
lists in case anyone has solved this already while I am waiting for a
reply.
