Charles Beer new poster Registered: 05/11/2007 Posts: 37	Anyone have a 303 fascia that could possibly measure it for me and send detailed dimensions? I'd like to create one very similar but neet dimensions 1st. Need exact hole size and location for buttons etc. Any help appreciated. I really want to get this done within the next 2 months while we are slow around the holidays. Thanks in advance...

That's the diameter of the Multimec button caps intended for the fascia. Maybe webroach has the measurements from his previous effort. _________________________ - FireFox31 110gig MKIIa (30+80), Eutronix lights, 32 meg stacked RAM, Filener orange gel lens, Greenlights Lit Buttons green set

You may still get an answer from someone who has the information you need. _________________________ Remind me to change my signature to something more interesting someday

It would just be easier on me if someone could've provided the dimensions.

Been reading the board very sporadically and just stumbled into this thread. I've got a 303 face - what measurements are you looking for? Or maybe I'll just whip up a crude pic and add basic measurements and then you can specifically ask for any more measurements you need. I'll go look for the allen key... _________________________ /Michael

Perhaps the best thing might be: if you have a flatbed scanner, just scan the 303 face at 300dpi and make the image available to him. Cheers Edited by mlord (03/02/2008 14:17)

It's taped to the underside of the bottom shelf on the Ikea bookshelf! Nooo, Im pretty sure those are bigger than the one needed for the face... Maybe if IKEA got into doll furniture? Actually have 6 or 7 IKEA allen keys lying at the rear of a drawer in the living room bookshelf. (Not that long since purchased and assembled) And a fistful in the kitchen junk drawer. _________________________ /Michael

Some of the stuff is utter crap of course. True enough. It's not the designs I don't like, so much as it is that nearly everything is made from veneered particle board that chips if you even so much as look at it sideways. The pieces that are made using plywood or solid wood are still pretty reasonable, but they're becoming more and more rare.

I found a solution to that with my cheap computer desk/hutch thing.
