Thinking about kickstarting front panel manufacturing service.

I would think there is a market for guitar amp faceplate, maybe not larger enough for a bulk order. Never mind.

Currently I'm working mostly on guitar speaker cabinets for tube amplifiers, so I would be making guitar amp faceplates for sure.

I'm open for cooperation.
If someone can come up with a prototype, design a PCB, I could do the fabrication, assemble kits and do the shipping.

[If someone can come up with a prototype] -- I can perform the mechanical design of brackets/chassis/panels and create the 3D CAD-models of them.









[design a PCB] -- I can also design the PCB's as well. But, I need 3 primary items: 1) A clear and completed schematic diagram, 2) The mechanical dimensions of the board-outline, mounting hole locations and sizes and 3) The "Manufacturer's Part Number" for all of the electronic and electro-mechanical components. This is so I am able to identically match the schematic symbol to the physical component size on the PCB.











[I could do the fabrication] -- The current "thing" with the -- low-volume/prototype -- sheet-metal shops that I use is their ability to be able to directly import a variety of CAD-files into their sheet-metal fabrication equipment. Most of the sheet-metal shops that I am familiar with are able to import both a -- STEP or STP -- file and/or a -- .SLDPRT -- file from the SolidWorks 3D CAD-modeling program. Can you do this as well? If not, find out how you can!!!
