Re: Metal blank panels

2002-09-04 by flamey101

Hello Florian,

according to one of the plastic-suppliers plexiglass are acryllic 
plates. But you have indeed other, stronger types of plastics, that 
are to be used as burglar-proof windows, called Lexan (quite nice to 
drill holes in I think).
The thing is that I can only get plexiglass coloured (hopefully 
also "frosted" ,looks nice with blue) .
The other thing is that I'm not going to make module panels from it, 
just the case. The only mod I maybe want to do on my doepfers is 
replace the knobs for AS ones (and in time the mini jacks for metal 
ones?)..
