Hi Noel
Most interesting and will aid no end with the panel project.
The Panel Palace is having a top to bottom remodel so no systems for a few days more

I recently got access to an orginal PDP-11/70 front console (the one in
magenta and rose), and also an 'Industrial' -11/70 (blue and red). Scans of
both of these front panels have been added to my PDP-11 stuff page:

My A3 scanner won't _quite_ eat the whole thing in one gulp, but it did manage
to 'see' all the printed stuff. The actual panel is very slightly larger, so
there are some thin sections on either side missing from the scan, _but_ on
that page there is a mechanical drawing that gives the dimensions of the whole
thing. So the two together should enable a complete reproduction.
