Any suggestions on making a (compound curve) patch panel? A patch panel would sure come in handy if any has one available.

I would make 3 maybe 4 small pieces which would be easier than trying to do that complicated form all in one piece. Tack them together and work with them until you are close enough to hammer and dolly and get by with just a skim coat of filler. Make cardboard templates from the good side for a guide.
