Searching for post about Tektronix front panel fabrication/printing process


 

Sorry for the vague post, but I remember in the last year or so, somebody giving a detailed description on how the Tektronix front panels were produced for durability, with respect to anodizing, silk screening, etc. Probably Dennis? or Chuck? ¡­ I rummaged through my archives but didn't find the post. If the author remembers it, maybe they can link it in this thread?

I did find some older posts by search though, but I think the one I mean is much more comprehensive.
e.g. /g/TekScopes/message/111625 ; /g/TekScopes/message/101696

Thanks for any help.


 

Hi Toby,
You are in luck.
There is an excellent video on how Tek did this on the vintageTEK Museum web site It is here:

Thanks very much! I am pretty sure there was also a detailed post on
this list as well.

Ah... I watched this a few days ago -- this doesn't cover the
manufacturing details though. Just the design/mockup process.
