Dieter ,

That sounds interesting, I could certainly use 4 of those for my new cab (maybe 6).

Any idea how much to send to the UK

Many thanks

David

Subject: AW: 1 Wooden Doepfer cabinets

Our supplier (ProMa, Germany) is able to deliver suitable rails with 1 m in length (about 15 Euro each). We need these for our A-100 monster cases. If they have to be shortened to a specific length they ask for additional 18 Euro (!!!). We could order these rails as special parts for interested customers but I expect very high shipping charges because of the unusual length. I recommend to look in your own country to find a supplier of rails.

The rails can be mounted to the wooden cases at both end with suitable self-tapping screws (even available from ProMa or from us) as described on the A-100 DIY page. Threaded inserts or normal M3 screws can be inserted into the rails for module mounting. If the length is not a multiple of 84HP the threaded inserts have to be shortened as they are available only for 84HP (not available with 1 m length).

Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer
