The rack ears option had occured to me, but personally I'm just making a
rack mounting unit that can sit on the desktop.
Paul Maddox is having an alternate layout machined into a Hammond
desktop case, which looks like it will be very nice.
I'll be wanting to see photos when he gets it back...

I have a couple of wooden ends holding my rack panel above the desk, at
the same sort of angle as the desktop cases. These are shaped so that
the DIN plugs connecting at the back willl still fit when it is rack
mounted with something above it.
Changing my Schaeffer panel design from a rack to an 'earless' desktop
front panel is just a case of changing the material size in Front Panel
Designer. The tricky bit is going to be making the rear of the
enclosure.
It could be built from wood, but this doesn't look as professional as
folded metal. I had hoped to find something ready made that would be
suitable, bit it looks like I'll be buying some sheet aluminium and
having a bash at folding it into a suitable enclosure.
I'll post more details of this when I know what they'll be ;-)

Cheers,
Colin f
