Yep!
My wife bought 5 of these and I confiscated them at once. I didn't use any rail, just pieces of wood to mount the modules...
Only, I don't have enough gear to fill 5 'Rast's, so I have a bigger problem now

thanks |
you can go much cheaper and DIY it and use angled aluminum pieces from home depot or elsewhere- i would recommend installing vertical rails first then building a "cage" ala frac rack or this .com thing depending on your panel sizes [or just buy the enclosure from PAIA or Blacet etc.].
yeah these thing are pretty awesome-

I was inspired by this discussion of the RAST, but trying to fit 5U high modules in I thought I needed something a bit bigger . I just bought a TRABY shelf unit. Removing the centre divider leaves 8U exactly across and 29" vertically - so 3 rows of 5U high modules plus 1U of multiples perhaps? (and an inch slack space)
Nice and thick sides and isn't too heavy either. And fits my ASM-2 pcb with about 3mm to spare

Just one thing we have to ask Ikea then: to sell rack profiles too!

D'yer know that it is possibly even cheaper just to buy some 8¨x1¨ plank and DIY it?
But then again.......

yes I thought someone would have something at least to say on that matter!
It is a good find though- especially when one considers how much many of the modular synth manufacturers make on their cabinets! _________________ ACHTUNG!

this one is actually closer to 1"x12" [.75"x11.75"] and yeah, maybe so, but only slightly- and considering the time saved, i'd say this is a really good deal. the long edges of all the boards are slightly beveled too, which is nice.

You could always just put in middle rails. keep your eyes peeled on ebay etc though. I recently picked up for a group of us 8 double row euro racks with middle dividers for only $35 each |

You serious? $35 for G6 frames?
That's insane!
