My RS-110 was looking very tired as quite a lot of the graphics/lettering had worn off. Also I always felt it was a little unnecessarily large so I designed a new, smaller 16HP panel and gave it some new knobs.
Only realised after I took the pictures that the aluminium centre of one of the cheap clone knobs was actually wonky. Dab of glue fixed that

lovely work - definitely an improvement.
I have about 20 ASys modules that could do with that makeover - would a tenner be enough to redo them all mate?  |

Love it! How did you make it?
And I love those Dark Energy knobs too, as you can tell

Material costs is about £15 per panel
Plus knobs.
Plus my time to disassemble and measure.

Just took it apart, measured all the holes and made a new panel layout with vector graphics in Inkscape. Then just sent the drawing to Razorlab (they do laser cut/engraved acrylic) and wait. Then I used acrylic paint (red and black) to infill the engraved lettering/graphics. Cleaned all the excess off, bolted all back together, job done!
Luckly the RS-110 (perhaps like most other Asys modules?) is all built nicely on separate boards (the jacks and pots are on their own sub-boards) so it was relatively easy to shrink the panel slightly and mount all the individual boards closer together.

Awesome, I need to do this to my RS-110 if I ever get it working again. _________________ "The person who says it cannot be done should not
