John--thanks! i just took a look at the back of that modular...yeah, the 300 series modules would extend, oh, about 3.5" past the back of the fracracks. re: panel: actually, most of my faceplates are printed w/ a color laserprinter, laminated, and stuck onto the aluminum panel with double-sided tape. this works, and looks much better than it probably should...cheap but functional (dan=college student) (the imagery is just a photoshopped version of the scan of the wogglebug faceplate from the Wiard site. don't tell Grant, tho). best, dan > Great story Dan! So the back of the Frac needs to be cut too? Wooo! Sounds like a job! :) > BTW, how did you do the Psycho LFO panel? Is it Schaeffer?
