EU group buy for 3U and 6U side panels for Eurorack cabinets

sbur · Post by **sbur** » Sat Jun 15, 2013 11:44 am

Hi there,

based on a thread which was started a while ago on the German Sequencer forum, I try to organise a group purchase for side panels in 3 and 6U size. The panels are aligned with the dimensions of the Gie-Tec Rails (PDF, 19-Zoll T
rÃƒÂ¤gerprofil 1) also used by Doepfer and Schneidersladen.

Is anyone interested?

We would need at least 30 pcs each to get them manufactured. The price is slightly higher (20 Cents each) as from the manufacturer, which covers the shipping cost that I would have to pay on top.

per piece:
side panel 3U 4,50 Ã¢â€šÂ¬
side panel 6U 8,20 Ã¢â€šÂ¬

Shipping depends on the weight:
Germany:
Jiffy bag 500g: 1,45 + 0,50 Jiffy bag
Jiffy bag 1000g: 2,40 + 0,50 Jiffy bag

Inside Europe:
Jiffy bag 500g: 3,45 + 0,50 Jiffy bag
Jiffy bag 1000g: 7,00 + 0,50 Jiffy bag

This is the cheapest option and does not include tracking or insurance.

Here are the technical drawings and a picture of my prototype.
ATTENTION: Due to cost reasons the width was changed to 30mm. Material: anodised aluminium, cutting edges blank.

Feedback is welcome.

I'd take a pair 6U if it happens :)

Short Update:
It looks like we will get 30 pieces together for the 3U panels.
I hope that some of you will be interested in the 6U panel as well, as I am not sure yet if we will get 30 pieces together.

Deadline will be the 21.6., 11:59 pm.

Sorry for bothering again, anyone interested in these side panels? We still need some people for the 6U side panels. But of course you can still sign up for 3U panels.

Is the order already done then? I'm definitely interested, I'd like 8 x 3Us. Hopefully I'm not too late.

Guys, you might want to send sbur a pm.

He just updated his website
http://clicksclocks.de/659

I will sell them completely assembled in the standard width 19 inch or 84HP, but any width is possible on request. If you want to know the pricing, please contact me.

My 3U panels have arrived, very nicely finished and a good economic solution for the SDIY where you really just want accurately spaced rails to attatch to a wooden case and not a whole metal subrack.

Thanks for organizing the group buy, Stefan.

Mine arrived a couple of days ago, with some gie-tec rails as well. Very nice! And big thanks to Stefan for his work

At your service, thanks for the positive feedback.
Just to let you know, new panels are on their way. As I didn't order the same amount, the price is slightly higher:
6U side panels - 9,00 EUR
3U side panels - 5,00 EUR
Just drop me a message.
Sorry for the shameless advertisment :-)
