Whee, these look really good!  :D :D
How did you made the overlay-printings? Glossy-paper? Or is it directly reversed-printed on the plexiglas itself?

Carsten, also from Germany ;)

Thanx, even with article-number - I'll have a look at these  :D
Guess this transparent labels could also be a good idea for making a marquee. Printing directly on plexi/Lexan is quite expensive (about 100 Euro / $90).

This controls are sure a lot of fun to play with!

The Overlays was printing on Transparent Inkjet Labels from Zweckform No.4723 (Din A4), and if side-twisted are printed, afterwards the printed side(page) is pasted with white DcFix. Then the finished sticker is stuck from below on the Perspex disc etc... ;)


Okay, I had to re-translate that last part, looks like something got lost after (Din A4)!  So it sounds like you reverse-printed on clear adhesive sheets, sprayed (?) the backside with some kind of white fixative to fix the ink and make it opaque, then stuck them to the bottom of the plexiglass.  Has anyone tried having a print shop print something on adhesive film?  Just wondering what the cost would be...

I really like your joyboards! Looks like loads of fun! :D

Should have seen these before, maybe then I would build only small controlpanels, too, instead of this big and unbelievable expensive upright-cabinet! ;D ;D ;D
