Default Holding jigs for 19" front panels

I've been making a few front panels for equipment lately and I see

more
on the horizon. Has anyone made jigs for securing these in milling

machines
and how did you do it? Could these be available on the market?



I've always simply clamped them using regular mill-dogs and wooden spacers
(so as not to mar the surface...). If you are going to do repetitive
pieces, clamp
a piece of angle iron to the mill table as an alignment stop.
