OK, I just uploaded a blank panel .fpd file, 4 panel widths wide, IE 12" wide, 5.25" high, with screw holes 1.5" apart, 0.3" from the top and bottom. I think that's right - can anyone confirm? (I'll check tonight, in any case) I'll bring a bunch of parts into work tomorrow so I won't indulge in my usual bad .fpd habit of putting everything too close together! :-/ rs-232 port, of course, yes. does anyone have dimensions for the lcd screen?
