Wow,  I can't wait to see your project done.  Complete new wood encasement?.... tre retro and quite BRILLIANT! Everyone's going to think you have some awesome bastard child of a mono/poly, Sequential Circuits Pro, and/or A Mini! :P
Yea,  I think I'm making it easy for myself and just installing multiple power ports.  It doesn't matter to me that I have 2 or 3 chords coming out for A/C,  that's what powerstrips are for, though purists of aesthetics may scoff  :)  My  dedicated effects module will be piggy backed, not integrated.  I'm not planning a complete integration like frankenkorg, because I simply don't have that kind of skill.
