I work to avoid overcrowding control cavities and with the various super switches this can be an issue as they take up a lot of valuable real estate. I guess this is part of my 'engineering mind', to keep track of the space, arrange logically, and avoid 'whoops' moments. I contacted Electroswitch (the switch manufacturer), did some 'reverse engineering' (to create decent drawings we can all use) and in the communication of the past 2 weeks I've had with their Sales Manager, Trey Ayscue, he has now helped me nail down the important "form factor" dimensions. Certainly there are many more dimensions, common or uncommon, but for fitting into a cavity with lots of switches and pots, these are the interesting ones. He says he is going to use what I created (with his assistance) and place it on the Electroswitch site for customer use. Here is a copy of what we now have for the solder terminal types:

If any of our group are into CAD and 3D modeling I made models of the 3 main types illustrated in the 2D drawing and you can download them from GrabCAD (which has a lot of other guitar-related models in various categories, plus a ton of other types of models). Joining GrabCAD is pretty easy and fast. Oak Grigsby Superswitch ModelsHere is an composite snapshot showing the narrow, regular and the reversed terminal types
