Neil,
I know you did not like your console, but don't you think that this is rather an extreme way of getting rid of it

Yes. I'm most jealous. I spent half the weekend tryng to swap my remarkably similar looking keys over for Neils but he wouldn't let me.

I saw this at the weekend, and certainly looks the business!

Definitely interested in finding out more

Does look very smart!

Is this designed just for the Shakespeare or will it adapt to fit similar RIBs too?

OK OK, Biff's been under embargo, but she got her first outing at the weekend, so I was going to start a build thread. will just carry on from here when I am at home, and post the pics I have throughout progress.

I have to say i am chuffed with the result, and a big thanks to Biff for taking on the challenge. I am also rather chuffed that all my measuring up, resulting in me telling him it had to be a bit wider here and have 8 cms knocked off there, was rather spot on

thanks Biff
