Hello all,

Does anyone know of a local source for rack mount chassis like these?

Thanks!

I have a couple 1U ones I bought for a project that never materialized.

If you only need one (or 2), and 1U size, I'd be happy to let you have
them for about what I paid, maybe less, or maybe a couple beers or
something.

Doesn't Norvac's have stuff like that? I believe--and I've been way wrong before--I've seen something like that when I was there a couple of times.

norvac does indeed have those, but i'd call first. they don't reliably
stock _anything_.

I have a old rack mounted computer, computer is dead, but the case is fine. (came out of an electron microscope) Do you need more than one? It is not exactly the same, there are doors on the front. But the form factor is the same as the bigger one. Likely heavier duty than shown.

If interested maybe we can make a trade? My wife would be happy if it went away to tell the truth.

Dan,

Thanks for the offer. I need the case to house two micrphone pre-amps
that I've assembled (that includes 2 PCBs and 4 transformers) , so I
need a front panel that is blank and an inside that is free of partitions.
