Re: [motm] Update

2008-05-28 by Jeff Laity

Something that just occurred to me last night: you can use standard  
rack rails for mounting MOTM modules. I don't mean vertically mounting  
modules using the MOTM-19A rails, but running rack rails horizontally.  
I knew that 1u MOTM = 1u rackspace but I thought the screw size was  
different or something. This makes it super-easy to build a cabinet,  
just buy some rack rails from Middle Atlantic or wherever.

Of course I figured this out when I'm 90% finished with my new cabinet  
with Bridechamber rails (which are not that expensive). But you always  
outgrow your first cabinet, right?
