I've made front panels out of all sorts in the past. Plastic or aluminium sheet have been the best or (just about any) PCB material. You can finish them by printing the design onto A4 sticky label and putting that onto the material, covering it with clear plastic film to protect it. My latest panels have been made as PCBs, but you are restricted in size and they aren't all that cheap really. They do look good though.
PCB material for a front is interesting as you can connect things like panel-mounted pots via tracks to a connector at one place. It's also good for RF stuff as it creates a screen between your hand and RF components behind it. |
