I was so happy with the results of my "practice" panel that I just had to go ahead and make another one. I decided to start simple and just make a lighting control panel. I used the exact same technique as my other panel, so here it is. The dimensions are the exact same as a single panel GoFlight unit. I figure once I build my racks up that I will thank myself for that, since I do intend to eventually get some of the GoFlight modules.

I like that technique, very professional without using high end hardware. I might rip off your technique Wink

Haha, thanks! You are more than welcome to. It's worked out well for me so far. I've already got a "master switches" panel and an EFIS panel worked out that I've gotta finish up. I have some of the switches I need on order from Jameco, but they are shipping slow. Not due to arrive here for another 6 days!  Angry I am impatient. Of course, I am in North Carolina, and they are in California I think, so I guess it's understandable.
