Re: Stooge update

The flat rails are priceless!  I can make my own brackets and cables.

I did a FrontPanelExpress design complete with threaded holes and 
countersunk mounting. Ouch - very expensive!  I have made my own 
flatrails in the past and the issue was precision location of the 
holes.  I did a second flatrail design with only the holes since it is 
easy to tap the threads and countersink the mounting holes.  In a 
natural aluminum 3 mm rail, the cost is still $18.60.  However, it 
drops to $13.02 in a quantity of 20 or more.  This might be feasible 
for a combined order.

I suppose the other option is just to buy rack mounting strips and cut 
them to fit.
