> When I worked with Rex at STS in Oakland I built many, many PSUs. The chassis box was manufactured by LMB, I believe. I haven't seen a "modern" supply from STS though, so I don't know if that has changed. LMB boxes were light grey with rounded edges, top, bottom and sides perforated with ventilation holes, and inset end panels of a darker grey. Excellent enclosures.
