Finally close to being finished.

Brewtroller powered (obviously) with a faceplate from Front Panel Express (who I highly recommend).

The switches allow for manual on, manual off or Brewtroller controlled for each valve, pump, etc. The LED changes color based on the mode selected.

Dang, I've seen this thing several times and it always makes giddy and jealous! I really like the tri-color LED circuit you worked up. Nice work sir!
 
Awesome! One of the best I've seen. I'm glad to hear you had a good experience with Front Panel Express. I plan on using them in the future for my panel.
 
The whole thing is VERY nice! What did you use to step down the power for the LEDs?

thx
BTW, long time reader first time poster.

The LEDs are driven by 12VDC which is what controls the relays that the switches connect to; resistors drop the voltage to appropriate levels.

I think the build thread might have some pics of the circuit board I did for the cabling: http://www.brewtroller.com/forum/showthread.php?t=583
