Me, I admire them every day.

pcox - I have three templates for locating the holes and routing out the back.

Steve_Greenway Steve_Greenway writes: These are great! I've made a few switch plates myself, but always out of solid wood, and rather plain. I never thought of using veneers. Yours are much more attractive than mine, but this gives me some new ideas.
