Ah now I understand what you mean.
It doesn’t really matter what shape the acrylic is as long as it matches the metal and show all the LEDs. You could even make a U shaped insert if you want. I thought round inserts are probably easier to make (and maybe cheaper).
So this would be easier? I am ignorant when it comes to panel design… I was trying to wrap my head around how to design the cutouts for the LED’s…
I was thinking all the cuts done in one metal panel.
I’ve been wanting to put together a midibox controller for my Kawai K5000R (so many parameters), this looks perfect.

Amen to that!
My K5000s needs some editing help for those moment when I don’t feel like using a mouse or the iPad…
Then again, there’s lots of hideously complex synths out there, cough FS1r cough! :sorcerer:

Hi members.
I have updated the shipping cost table including 45€ insurance for 6, 7 and 8 ordered PCBs.
Because:
- the prices have dropped since the beggining of the bulk order,
- lot of members have upgraded their order during it,
- maybe some people prefer to spend less money for insurance,
so I ask those who already sent me their personal informations about the shipping to check again the shipping cost table and eventually send me the good amount of insurance they want.
Thank you.
Best regards.

hi fairlightiii…
little story about tayda electronics and german customs.
I ordered on friday evening a lot of parts (in sum around 3500 parts), many resistors, LEDs, IC…for a realy good price. It was around 90$…with the discount coupon code it was arround 77$. Because i saved a lot of money with that discount code i ordered it via DHL express delivery…it made an extra of 35$. so the grand value was around 111$. the delivery tayda and DHL made in lightspeed. ordered on friday at 10pm (GMT) delivered at 5pm (GMT) on monday and the delivery was all the time trackable. Great job…but!!!..then came german customs and calculated a tax and fees about 33€ that are around 47$…and is more 50% on the merchandise value (90$-14$=76$ and around 62% on the by discount code reduced merchandise value).
but overall i can say it is allready much cheaper to order at tayda electronics than here in germany at reichelt. not for all parts but for those tayda has. Packaging was okay, no visible damages. Had no time to test the parts till now but if you can see in many unboxing videos at youtube about tayda there is all okay. 
For all german forum users in here:
Ihr könnt bei Tayda bestellen, aber bestellt recht viel, damit sich das am Ende auch lohnt. Bei mir lag der tatsächliche Preis durch den Zollaufschlag (bei 3500 Einzelteilen) pro Teil 1ct höher. Beispiel 3mm LED: im Shop bei Tayda 0,02$ (entspricht etwa 0,0154€ +0,01€ = 0,025€).
Günstigste 3mm LED bei Reichelt kosten 0,06€ pro LED also 0,035€ gespart…macht bei 1000 Stück (trotz hoher Zollgebühr) schon 35€ aus
(Ich denke mir der Zoll hat da nur Mist gebaut und einfach den Gesamtbetrag auf der Rechnung (inklusive Versandkosten) von 111$ als 111€ angesehen und darauf mal eben 30% Steuern und Gebühren berechnet!
Trotzdem ist Tayda ein guter Tip wie ich finde!
but all in all tayda is a good hint for those of you who will order a lot of parts like resistors, LED, sockets or ICs! don’t forget to search for discount codes…that saves on top a lot of money!

Hi MaG2k.
…then came german costums and calculated a tax and fees about 33€ that are around 47$…and is more 50% on the merchandise value (90$-14$=76$ and around 62% on the by discount code reduced merchandise value).
Custums calculate their fee on the merchandise value AND the shipping cost.
