Good advice Moe.  Interestingly enough, you may find that the jacks on the
bottom of the panel may be more of a concern.  I have never had a dot com
slant cabinet in my possession.  However, I can tell you that on the Stooge
cabinets I sell, the cabinet maker has to make special provisions by cutting
a slot for the jacks on the bottom row.  I'm not sure if the jack location
on Roger's cabinets causes his to make any similar prevision.

Here is a photo on my website that shows how that provision is cut in my
cabinet kits.

The top of whatever wood rail the dot com cabinet has for screwing the
modules into the bottom row must have either:
1. The same angle back as the cabinet front or
2. Some slot similar to the one in my cabinet kits.

Yeah, but the pcbs don't start at the bottom of the module, do they?
Most of my long stooge bracket modules have the bracket at least 3
inches from the bottom of the module - that would allow a lot of tilt
before it hits.

Take some modules out of their cabinets and just lean them back on the
tabletop. That will tell you what angle you can stand.
