Thanks matt3o - that's a lot of great stuff. And very timely for me - I'm just starting to build by first keyboard. I've been using DraftSight to prototype plate designs using some sample files from users on geekhack and it works great. I have a DWG file that contains the plate cutouts and switch ou...
