6.1.2 Layout the Faceplate for drilling
We worked with BNP Lasers to supply a professional grade faceplate for the
Plexi SE PCB. The information is on our web site. We highly recommend you
buy this faceplate and use it to layout the front panel drill locations. It’s much
more accurate to use the actual faceplate than it is to use a drill plan printout.
If you have a faceplate, align the faceplate with the front of the chassis and trace
each drill location.
If you must used a printed copy of the drill plan…
Always verify you are using the latest version of the drill plan posted on
GuitarAmplifierPCBs.com.
If you can not print onto 11x17” paper, you can take an electronic
version of the drill plan to Kinkos. They will print it professionally for
under $1.
Print out a copy of the VJ Conversion Drill Plan. Make sure it is printed to scale.
Cut away the unused portion of the
drill plan as shown. The mounting
hole near the back of the power
transformer is optional. It’s very close
to the rubber grommet. It’s not used in
the picture shown.
Align the drill plan to the chassis using
the alignment holes indicated on the
plan.
Affix the plan to the chassis with a
generous amount of white glue or tape.
Note: This is not a picture of the Plexi SE PCB drill plan. Instead, it is a
drill plan of a similar build. But it adequately represents the front panel of
the Plexi SE PCB. Since we used a BNP Lasers faceplate to mark the
front panel, we did not photograph the printed drill plan method.
