Control Panels

I am about to start building a layout and have received some great advice so far - thanks

 

I now want to start the control panel as I have a good plan for the layout and the panel I need.  I read in one of Peter Riddle's books about use peg board covered with white contact paper and it worked OK on my last layout.  This time, the toggles and push buttons I will likely buy are 1/2 inch diameter but the only peg board I found locally has 1/4 inch holes.  I can clearly drill the holes bigger but if I do that I should just start with plain board I think.

 

I did see on Amazon 1/4 inch think PVC with 1/2 inch holes (link below) - expensive, I would need to cut it down but I could reuse, the pre-drilled holes provide some structure.  Anyone try this? Is PVC sheet hard to work with?  

 

Other thoughts?

 

Thanks
