   Hmmmm - I'm wondering if Front Panel Express (www.frontpanelexpress.com) 
might be an economically viable way to get this done - I think you'd have 
to provide a plot of the panel scanned into Autocad, or just re-drawn 
using their own software - it's pretty simple panel as these things go - 
then, if the price was sensible, you could run a few of them and sell the 
surplus to us Lazier Louts...   ;}


   I've used these folks a lot doing military re-furb work - never been a 
problem and they've been very good to work with in terms of panel 
material, finishes, paint specs, etc.


   Just my 200 millidollar for to-day.
