Default Getting a handle on the tail dolly

The tail dolly for my new WalletWhomper II came without a handle on
top. I want to add one. I am betting that drilling holes and using
flathead machine screws from inside will still endanger the fuse
boom.

Any hot tips? (Besides "If you have to ask, don't do it.")

I bought from SH a dolly "shell" since the shell itself was WAY less
expensive than the complete dolly.

I'd recommend you peel back the padding and invest in a decent
countersink. Match drill the holes and install flat head screws AFTER
you countersink the inside of the dolly so that the head of the screw is
flush with the inside surface. Then use some contact cement and put the
felt back in place.
