This setup is great and allows savings and adaptability. Very thoughtful that they have several holes to screw into box otherwise you wouldn’t be able to center screws and likely split the wood. I marked and pre drilled holes to avoid splitting. Be mindful of the boxes you use since most are not true square and you will have to chose gap in front or rear. The apimaye bottom boards, feeders, and covers are superior in quality and value compared to wood and I wish apimaye boxes were less expensive. Latches can be a bit difficult to install and depending on wooden box handle cutouts position you may need to offset instead of center.
