Thanks!
I'm taking photo's as I go along, I've added a few more today of the case build and mock-up.
Still some tweaking to do with the panel design (which incidentally will be on an aluminium whiteboard that was being thrown out of my work, brand new still with protective plastic coating, and there's enough of it to do 2 more panels... for when i probably mess up drilling the holes accurately on the drill press hah!.
When i get the wood cheeks shaped and routed out for the boards at the back, hopefully by this weekend, I'll start a new thread documenting everything, rather than hijacking dave's thread (sorry Dave!)
cheers,
Kev

It doesn't matter to me that I have 2 or 3 chords coming out for A/C, that's what powerstrips are for, though purists of aesthetics may scoff :) My dedicated effects module will be piggy backed, not integrated. I'm not planning a complete integration like frankenkorg, because I simply don't have that kind of skill.
