Hello everyone, this is only my 6th post on this board in 11 years!!! lol
Heres the question, my current config is saitek yoke, throttle, radio, 42' monitor pushed by a dell latitude laptop. Needless to say this is not going to get it. I decided to go ahead and start building a home cockpit. In investigating what it was going to take and making a plan i notice that i could find NO U.S. based suppliers. This is mighty inconvenient to me as when i spend money i kind of like my stuff in a reasonable amount of time. Does anyone know of a U.S. supplier of the panel faces? preferably 737?

well my friend You have found someone who knows exactly what you need. My panel maker is in process of making my overhead panels for my 757 build.
This is the 777 Overhead he made for my buddy over in the UK
he starts with first using cad to design the layout
Then using a laser cuts out each panel and holes for switches and korrys.
Then uses a laser to etch the lettering and outline to match the factory
Then comes the beauty !
The panel maker is a Former RW 737 NG pilot and recently left to become a full time US based Panel maker for Sim pilots.
he started out with 737s and did a custom 757 panel for me.
This is a pic of his 737 Overhead.
I can attest to his quality Supurb, if your on facebook contact SKYNAV simulations. based in Seattle Washington.
Any more questions Ill be happy to help.

I am not the creator of the panel, It is being made for me from SKYNAV solutions on facebook. The same one who did my origional condensed overhead.
