Trying to help a friend with instrument layout for a new panel. Anyone
have a cad drawing of one of these?

You can get a very high quality PDF drawing from the AS website.
Should then be possible to bring that into a CAD program and convert
it into a CAD dataset.

can't a PDF file be opened in a vector/spline based application like
Adobe Illustrator? if so, it should be relatively easy to get what you
need, sizing the view space and the printing window would take some
tiling tho.

Should have poked around further on the website before giving up....

I have a .dwg of my ASG29 large panel if you are still looking.

Here's a DWG version of that panel. Double check it before you put much faith in it:

That works too. You can laser cut a template with the screw holes and center holes only and go the hole saw route. Only works for the round instruments. :-)
I tried it both ways and even with a drill press to hold the hole saw it wandered off center on me by about 0.05". I'm sure with practice I could get better but the hole saw was also slightly over size to the instruments and I literally needed to be on target to 0.002" because I had several instruments separated by the thickness of a sheet of paper or two.
CNC also works but takes more effort to get the tool offsets and cutter path programmed.

The last time I did a project like this I sent the CAD file to a plastic shop who used it to laser cut a 1/8" plexiglass panel complete with mounting holes and instrument holes. IIRC the bill was $35. That let me test all the instrument installations and fittings with a panel I could see through which made detecting interference easy. Then I sent the file to a metal shop who laser cut the panel itself. That part cost $70. Everything fit perfectly.
Good add Bill - I'd forgotten that my shop wouldn't let me laser cut the panel directly if I couldn't give them the chemical composition of the epoxy being used - out of fear of toxic fumes. That necessitated the use of a template router. If you can get a shop to let you laser cut the fiberglass directly you cut out the intermediate step and it all goes much faster. Also a lot easier to cut square holes and fine details that way.
Same process as the water jet - just a different tool.

Hello,
I just purchased a 29. Thinking about a new panel. Does anybody still have the files ? I like the process of fitting it using the plastic first. I don’t like reinventing the wheel. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
Thanks!

I have one for the ASW27 in DWG. How do I get it to you?

Larry, Not only do I have the CAD file, I have many instruments that have the back measurements. So, you can move them around at will in the cad file to see if they are going to fit in the panel. The fronts don't mean much in this job other than looking what will be in the air.
The SN-10 comes to mind. Some instruments have inlarged backs beyond the standard.
I will send all I have with it if you like.
I do have DropBox if you want them. I can post the link
