Instrument Layout Guides

These guides have been cut on our CNC machine to drawings supplied by Winter Instruments. Each guide can be used as a stencil to position the instrument and mark out the holes.

The template is designed to be used to mark out the holes once the major hole has been cut and is suitable for both 57 and 80 mm cut outs.

All the parts are made from 2 mm polycarbonate

Flat Composite Panels

Please note that we do note recommend that Pure Carbon sheeting is used for instrument panels
