Hmmm... if the spacing is 5.5" x 5", I wonder how it can work with
studs at 16" or 24"?



The idea of securing at the dimples is my idea, I think many people
don't do it that way. I haven't seen any YouTube videos of people
doing it that way - they just nail/screw/staple wherever. But screwing
into the dimples makes sense to me since it leaves as much of the
lathe raised up as possible.
