Consider this: I'm doing 2U high "minor modules" on bottom (Moog IIIc look)
instead of 3U high, that way I can just buy a 5U x 2U blank MOTM panel and
turn it on its side. You could buy 3U wide panels from Paul and do the same.
You may end up cutting one short at the end if it doesn't come out a whole
multiple of your cab width.
