MOTM

Speaking of cases, I need to know two module dimensions (and Paul needs
to put these answers in the FAQ).  I would just measure one of my modules,
but they're at home and I'm not at the moment.

  1) What is the depth of a module, from the back of the panel to the rear
card/plate edge?  (For the 800 and the "standard" depth stuff).  And if,
it is different/longer, the 900's depth.

  2) What is the "knob height", that being the distance from the BACK
(the case mounting plane) of a panel to the front face of the knobs?  I
know this tends to vary a bit given the different pot-types, but what I
need is the "worst-case" value.

  Thanx,

O.k. Now I have an example to point to. The cases I want to eventually build
for my MOTM are basically the vinyl-covered cases at synthesizers.com, with
the metal corners. Supposedly those offered on the site can be hinged
together, which is what I wanted--something like a large, open case that can
be closed and clasped without knobs bumping into each other. I'd also like
to build a removable plate into the back of one so that the power supply can
be mounted there and accessed. I'd probably also need an access hole with
connector to link power between the two cases.

Is anyone else considering this? I was going to do it myself, but I don't
know when I'll have access to the tools (Brooklyn apartment living doesn't
lend itself to table saws, etc.).
