Does anyone have a non 3D overlay or scaled/dimensioned drawing of the button LCD shield layout? I want to put my Arduino RT controller in a project box and need to machine the openings for the LCD and Buttons. I don't have CNC/CAD software or machines. I will be machining on a manual mill.
I would prefer something I can print and glue or tape to the box cover and mill the cutouts...

Which one are you using? There's a number of those shields available with different switch layouts.

It's a clone of the Sainsmart.

The Sainsmart page has a drawing of the shield, but I can't get it to print to actual size or I'd use that as a template. Man, wishing I could afford a 3D printer, lots of code for generating one online.

why not just measure the LCD that you have ?
