[sdiy] Synth Front Panel Material?

[James Patchell]

I get my metal from http://www.onlinemetals.com  (Hope I got the URL 
correct).  You want either 5052 or 6061 aluminum sheet.  Generally, for 
front panels, I just go to front panel express.  The cool thing about 
online metals is that you can get the sheets cut to size, which really save 
a lot of hassle...
