Wiardgroup

Ahh !!!!!!!!!!!!! After spending the afternoon at Vector and coming up 
with what we thought was a workable non-custom solution, the kit I 
brought home isn't right. Wiard 300 modules are exactly 6U and the 
holes are drilled very close to the edge which makes it difficult, 
hopefully not impossible, to fit into standard 6U subracks. The 
T-struts mounted in a 6U enclosure end up being about 1/16" too short. 
Fun . . . . . .
