Hi Don (& All)
  I too would be interested in a permanent mounting solution for the 
switches.  I do like Matt Turner's idea of using silk-screened PCB 
material for the front panel drilled for the LEDs & switch mounting.  
Holes in the corners could then me used to attach the PCB front panel to 
brackets for stability.  This would still leave a option on putting a 
IMSAI style mask behind acrylic if you wanted to go that route or you 
could leave it "as-is" for a more bare bones appearance. Do you think 
this is viable?
