Re: tabletop Wiard

That is the entire reason the 1200 series modules are so 
shallow in depth, for table top use in front of a vertical system like 
the 300 series. California Chassis used to make chassis boxes 
that were 17 x 5.25 x 3 and you could easily mount a row of 1200 
series modules on the 0.5 inch lip at top and bottom.

No one currently working there remembers the model or model 
number and they keep blowing me off. I've turned the office 
upside down looking for the catalog with the part number. No 
luck.

Hammond manufacturing makes a series of chassis boxes 
including ones 17 x 10 x 3. This could take a double row of 
modules on one faceplate.

Still looking for an optimal solution. Any help is appreciated.
