Bench Power Supply

PC ATX power supply converted to a bench power supply providing 12v, 5v and 3.3v. I got a bit carried away and added a key switch and a super bright LED indicator light! Top panel is laser cut. - Chris




I admit that this one is so geeky that even Jen is not following this project!
