I'd look into that compulsions thing iiwy, but technically, it's
simple.  Try opening up your SIDStation, and you'll see how neat and
modular it is.  

What you want to do is get a two-space rack form (2U so that it will fit the
keypad).  Open the SIDstation, unscrew the mainboard, the keyboard, the LCD,
remove the knobs, and all the ports from the back of the base.  Cut all the
same-sized holes into the rack form.  Screw everything into your rack.  For
increased static protection, I'd recommend running a grounded mains to the
rack, and placing a mounted wall wart inside the rack.
