Cutting baffle seals
I decided to leave a little more extra above the baffles for a total of about 2-1/4 inches. I marked on the material with a ball point pen and cut them out. Not too tricky.
I spent a bunch of time looking through the Mouser catalog for some better knobs, push button switches, and mini toggles. I also found the coax and Molex connectors that SteinAir sells. I’d rather get them from Mouser, plus they sell them cheaper. The coax connectors are Mouser part# 523-31-320-RFX. The Molex connectors can be found by searching for “Molex .084″. I was going to order the coax connectors from B&C, but they are now selling a genuine mil-spec connector that costs $5 each. The connectors that I’ve been using from SteinAir seem just fine and cost $1.33 in quantities of 10, which is how many I need. $13.30 sound much better than $50 for 10 connectors.
