Template for Drilling Mounting Holes for Instruments

 

I used a straightedge to mark a horizontal reference line all the way across the panel to measure instrument and switch placement.  I also squared everything off of this reference line.  The location of the line seemed like a natural because it is a repeatable point to lay a line across.  The square in the photo is laying on the line and provides a reference for squaring up the instrument mounting hole drill template.
