[R-390] Crayola front panels

[Bob Camp]

Hi

Now that's an interesting twist I had not thought of. I pretty much 
assumed the knobs would look pretty poor unless you painted them. What 
ever you use for the pointers would have to contrast well with bare 
metal. That's always been the challenge - how do you contrast with a 
mirror?

	Enjoy!
