3) If you like playing computer a lot you can print a
transfer on clear self adhesive stock to cover your
entire front panel, using a laser printer.
Or, you use an inkjet.
In either case you probably want to put a transparent layer over it by
several possible means.
This can look
great if everything is scaled correctly and you get the
transfer applied straight.
That sounds interesting - only problem is how do you make
hole for the post and switches?
You attach the adhesive stock to the pre-punched front panel, and then trim
the holes from the inside out with something sharp like an X-acto knife.
Or, if you are in a hurry, you make a cross-cut in the middle of the holes
and just push the pot or switch into the hole, using its threads to cut the
plastic stock to size.
