Somebody has one scan (in natural size) of one DEC front panel ?
I should like to try to reproduce one over adhesive transparent film
or another material and put it later over one transparent plastic panel.
There is one company here that do this works (in appeareance).
To work in the panel later to do it suitable is another matter.
Cheers
Sergio

The standard pdp/11 front panel colors are magenta and
wild rose.
From memory the 8/e front panel is mustard and burnt orange
Each DEC computer family in the 60's / early 70's had their own
color. The LINC/PDP-12 was light and dark green, the 9 was a different
shade of orange than the 8/e, and the 15's were light and dark blue,
which was different from the PDP-10 blue.

Standard 8/e is of course Amber and Terra Cotta. I've seen 8/F and 8/L
in that color scheme, as well as Orange and Terra Cotta for the 8/M.
Less standard color schemes for which i do not know the official color
names are the Industrial-8 colors (red and dark-blue), and another
8/e in light-blue and dark-blue.
