Re: Serge Buchla case

2009-01-29 by fhserge

I would suggest building the cases exactly to fit 1 regular Serge
panel and 1 M-module (no need to include narrow blank panel strip
then...) and you probably are happier with such a solution. Btw: I
did not understand why Rex did not simply half a regular panel into
2 halves to get a M-module but there certainly are reasons, I am
sure...

My metal worker is building what I am telling him to build...the
Buchla boat was simply an "idea" and it obviously helped him a lot
to have a "model" sitting in front of him...

All the measurements (width, depth etc) are configurable, therefore
my questions what all you "Sergians" would like to have.

The ONLY thing to know is "what is the EXACT width of an M-module"?

Although being a "Serge flight captain" I only have regular panels
so far.

All the best
