How do you drill for sliders?
I think having a pre-made enclosure could be a reason not to use the faceplate. Interesting project.
Schooled! : ^ )The four screws in the faceplate serve two purposes; they keep the faceplate on and they hold the slide pot module in place.
How's the discussion with Tayda in re drilling going? Would they provide rectangular drilling, or would it be a series of circular drills?
Very cool. This is shaping up to be very interesting. That’d be cool if they expanded the slot/mill option to custom jobs as well. It’d open up slide pots and switches (and rockers!) to a wider DIY audience.It'll be slotted / milled. The corners will most likely be rounded, but it shouldn't be an issue on a 2mm slot.
I should have a prototype enclosure soon and will post pics.
