Hi Amos,

Thanks for the suggestion!  Sounds like a good starting point.  Are any
of the designs in the book based on famous vintage ones or are they from
scratch?
I do intend to build all of my projects in a modular type of format, it
does provide the most flexibility, and I'm not terribly concerned with
cosmetics.
What modular format do most DIY-er's use?  I see there are blank MOTM
front panels and prototying boards, is that a good way to go?  I'm
already started with several MOTM-style modules but wouldn't rule out
something more compact.

Thanks,
- -John
