I wouldn't recommend this. Have you tried drilling Larry's steel PCB brackets? They're pretty tough to drill, drill press or not, even worse if you need to drill 8-20 3/8 inch holes for jacks. My recommendation is two L shaped brackets, one with two jack holes, one with a single pot hole. You would straddle the DIY panel across two of these mounted to the front panel. The two varieties give a mix and match capability for PCB mounting with all jacks, all pots or a mixture, without limitations on where the pots or jacks are located horizontally.
