A mostly gray scale anaglyph viewable with red/cyan 3d glasses.
A small cheap (money/biuld quality) electrical multi-meter. All I wanted was a
thermal couple for temperature and maybe a battery tester.
The labeling still needs some work, then I'll change it into an object/pattern
and project it onto the front. I've used a matrix-shear to angle the sides, too
much I think.
Comments welcome:

Nice! The side angles look quite good to me.
I've never used matrix before; I thought it 'globally' sheared an object in only
*one* direction. Yet your model shows a shear that's essentially toward an
apex--all four sides of a box converging to a point, so to speak. Am I right? If
so, that's fascinating. Could you perhaps give a small code example of how to do
that?

Yes.
I've divided the model up into corners and sides with overlap:-)
For one of the corners:
matrix <1,0,0,
.08,1,.08,
0,0,1,
0,0,0>
In my non tecnical mind, I've taken the y axis (second row) and leaned it in the
x (first column) and z (last column).
Matrix is my friend, and we regularly share the joy of pov ;-)

Aha! Interesting, nonetheless. And thanks for the matrix clue.
BTW, I think the labels on the voltmeter look quite nice as they are.
