Thanks to John for that link - I contacted StarCase last night and by
early this morning they'd gotten back to me to let me know that they
can do any size/configuration, they just need specs to give a quote.
So I've sent them a basic description (16 spaces, 10" depth, etc) and
I'll follow up here later when I hear from them, to let you all know if
this looks like it might be a viable option.
