Thanks everyone for your input.
I looked back in some of my old MAN's from 1964 and found the dimensions of the single channel TX case.
I also found out that Kraft did, in fact, anodize the cases in gold. There's a place in Paterson, the next town over from me that will anodize the cases for me once I find a source for the cases. I'm hoping that they're standard size, but I doubt it and will probably have them custom made.
I also found toggle switches for the reed set that are close approximations of the ones Kraft uses.
I contacted the Hall of Fame first and asked if I could drive over, about a 6 hour drive, to measure the TX cases and the switch layout on the 12 ch but he said no, it's a private museum but he did give me several people to contact.
HighPlains, is there a chance you could measure your 10 ch case and layout for me?
If so I'd really appreciate it.
The other thing I'm looking for is the Kraft logo, I'm hoping someone can take a picture of it and the other nomenclature and I can have paint masks made.
Thanks again for your help.
