[sdiy] Cheap method for front panels

[Seb Francis]

And now for some actual synth-diy ...

For my latest project I've made the front panel using the 'Blue Peter' 
method (UK people will know what I mean ;) of a computer-printed sticker 
and a layer of sticky-back plastic ..
(actually there's 2 stickers because the biggest I can print is A4, but 
you can hardly see the join)

It gives a nice look that's wipe-clean and tough enough for my studio use:

(it'll look better when the orange cap for the data entry pot arrives :)

.. more on this project later when the board is soldered together and 
the software's finished.
