Oh that blinkenlights panel is excellent! All emulators should have
one! :-) I'm not really into Qbus much but would probably buy a
production example anyway. I'd certainly fork out for several Unibus
devices if you make them!
One tip from someone with same issue in a parallel endeavor (IBM
System/360 panel): they look much better and more authentic with 'warm
white' LEDs. These are the ones I'm using:

One of my retrocomputing dream is to design an Unibus universal board,
probably based on FPGA because of precise timing requirements,
to emulate one or more disk/tape interfaces, and possibly something more.
The real storage could be based on SD card
You mean, perhaps, something like this?
