Yes, I'll go get a scanner tomorrow. Your diagram although a little shifted
in ascii is what I was thinking. Also for comment in the future, remember
this format. The left front when mounted in the enclosure will be at the top
of the enclosure.

You better try this again, start on the left and proceed to the left?
Put the prototype area on the right, later it says use the left for 
prototyping.

It is very confusing.

  ---------------|------
Front Area

A Area
Components to board go here
Connectors to front panel start on left side

Area B
Breadboard area.
Area B intrudes into area A as space allows

Is this what you are talking about?
