i knew for a while about making a pcb front panel for a case.
|
|
i did this on the flammable gas sensor. however, i didn't think
|
|
that it's also practical to make a pcb front panel for custom rack
|
|
mounted hardware, like in a server rack. That is fancy. why not?

says that the pcbs wouldn't be able to handle the stress of holding
|
|
onto the rack at the sides. fair enough, but it should still be possible
|
|
to use metal for the sides, and then a separate front panel that is a pcb.
|
|
apparently this isn't common practice, looking at enclosures, e.g.

|
|
but then jlcpcb only came about recently, so i can understand why large
|
|
front panel pcbs weren't used in the 90's or early 2000's.
|
|
Now, it would be cheap to do.
|
|
couple years ago, making this affordable only recently.

|
more good ideas
