Dotcom modules and 19A rails?

Dotcom modules and 19A rails?

2010-11-09 by John

I'm gonna buy a couple of dotcom Q111 panners. I've long lusted for an MOTM panner but now I can't wait anymore.

Can anyone tell me what mounting problems I'll need to overcome to mount them in 19A rails?

From what I could research, I might have to enlarge the Q111 #6 screw holes to accomodate the 19A #8 screws. My doubt comes from the possibility of a vertical hole misalignment after enlarging the holes.

I can live with the horizontal wasted space.

Has anyone ever tried mounting dotcom modules in 19A rails?

Thanks, John Speth

The holes will be misaligned. Alas, the spacing is such that one can't, for example, drill for both on one set of rails.

cheers,
Eric
