[sdiy] Dotcom synth supply rails harness suggestions needed...

I just started to screw all my diy 44 modules in place inside my
brand new dotcom 2 rows slant cabinet.
I'm in the process now of wiring all these modules to the supply
(+/-15v, +5v). Looking at the cabinet's back, the supply will
be placed at lower right. I want to wire each of the module's supply cables
using the 'star' approache, each module's supply cable directly connected
to the supply... No bus.
I was thinking of using a PCB with large traces close to the supply voltage outputs
that would interconnect the main supply voltages to all
the modules supply cables. But now I wonder if should use 2 rows of
22 x MTA156 TYCO part# 640445-6 connectors on this PCB
and connect them using crimped cables with MTA156 part# 3-643819-6 on each of their sides 
or 
if I should solder one side of each cable to that PCB and their
other sides would be crimped..
The thing that would help a lot would be pictures of some
DIY Dotcom system's slant cabinet (rear view) or any suggestions..
Thanks !
