This is a custom front panel for a cyberdeck built into a Pelican 1340 case. There are two PNG files for laser cutting. "Main Panel Engrave" has the label text and should be sent to the laser cutter in bitmap engrave mode. "Main Panel Cut" is the outline and cutouts, and should be sent in centerline cut mode. The files are sized to cut accurately at 300dpi. I used 1/8" HDPE plastic sheets cut on a 40W Creality laser.

The Engrave file has additional landing areas at the edges if you are using LaserGRBL, to avoid over-burning the edges of the text. If you are using Lightburn or another program that avoids overburn, you can delete these.

The "drive bays" are for 3D-printed compartments using Gladius Illuminatus' OpenBox (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4193093). The Battery Box fits a Voltaic V88 battery bank and the Storage Box fits various accessories. Sizes can be customized in OpenSCAD.

The front panel fits into the Pelican 1340 case, resting on the small protrusions just below the lip. I added several small angle brackets behind the panel for additional support.

Some trimming or sanding of the 3D-printed boxes and the inside of the Pelican case may be needed to fit your keyboard and other parts. 90-degree USB adapters are recommended when using a Raspberry Pi.

This was made to fit the following front panel parts:

• Original 7" Raspberry Pi touchscreen
• BATIGE USB 3.0 & HDMI to HDMI + USB3.0 AUX Extension
• JUXINICE USB2.0 Male to Female Extension Cable with Ears (5x)
• ICESPRING 3.5mm Male to 3.5mm Female Dashboard Flush Mount
• iGreely Ethernet Extender
• DB9 USB-to-Serial adapter
• SMA panel mount (2)
• TNC Antenna jack
• JacobsParts DC 2.4-30V 2-Wire Voltmeter

Ports and labeling can be customized in any image editor, as long as you retain the same scale and dpi for the laser engraver.
