You are in luck!

Doepfer already makes those cases.
1) The "Ikea" type

You'll have to order the wood yourself but that makes it even cheaper.

 2) a metal rackmount frame

It is called the basic frame.

I hope those are indeed the cases you were looking for.

regards,
Christophe

            You have asked for new ideas for modules, what about new ideas for 

cases?  One of the roadblocks that many people (including myself) have 

for purchasing a modular system is access to a low-cost case option.  I 

would propose two ideas for cases:  1) The "Ikea" type where you 

purchase a black covered wood case that is in pieces along with the 

power supply and mounting rails in a relatively flat box.  The customer 

would be responsible for assembly.  and 2) Having a metal rackmount 

frame that is designed to be mounted into an existing rack case, such 

as an SKB case.  A power supply would be provided that the customer 

attaches to one of the inside walls of the rack case.



I do not know if these have been suggested before, I do apologize if 

they have already been considered.
