Custom enclosure creation

Hi all, I am hoping to create a custom case with Schaeffer and wondering how I can get the correct measurements for the Nava knob holes and overall layout so I can begin designing. Pcb files perhaps?

You can do this by loading the eagle BRD file and unhiding the layers that show the panel components. You can then use the measuring tool to precisely layout measurements for each of the panel pots switches etc. I layout measurements from the edge of the board inwards to the pots and switches.

I have actually tried that.. but it seems that the center of switches and knobs are a little off, and i'm missing some more precise numbers. Can't get a dead-center, for all knobs and i have to use the mouse to center the knob, and that's not ideal..
Would be great if we could the get the layout file, used for the "official" metal-case..
