Hi Pedro,

your overhead looks great!!!!

How did you do the backlighting of the panels?
I'm working hard, tried some ideas of other guys,
but havn't found the right way to build.
Here is my story : 3mm plexiglass, sanded to be translucent,
a printed piece of film in black like a negative and a printed piece
of paper in dark gray with white words.
A second 3mm crystal clear plexiglass as a shield on top.
It looks great, but....
My last try was do do the backlighting with LEDs placed around
the switches on a PCB that contains the buttons.But the lights of the LEDs appeared like spotlights and not as a complete backlight.
And because of the use of PCBs its not possible to use bigger bulbs
from behind because of the shadows of the PCB.

I hope my words will be understandable ( because of my poor English)

It would be nice to read about your solution.

Best Regards
