Default circuit breaker symmetry
how have you guys addressed an odd number of circuit breakers? I think I'll have 5 breakers on one row and 6 breakers on the row above it. What have others done to make it symmetrical? I dont really want to buy a spare breaker to put in there, so Im looking for other ideas.

One way to do it is to drill the additional hole, get a button-plug that fits, and paint it black. Simply tricks the eye, and gives you a place to add the additional breaker that you didn't think you needed....
