Modular Kits idea

[David Halliday (Volt Computer)]

Needless to say, it would also be good to get blank panels ( both
pre-drilled and undrilled ) for use for your own modules.  

It might also be interesting to make a universal prototype module PCB -
something with scale, range and buffers for input and output, pads for
mounting jacks and pots, power decoupling and regulators and then space
for mounting your own custom circuitry...
