Well, I've already built my cabinets with flat rails.  They are 12U wide or 
6 2U Motm's.  The way I worked mine is like this.  The whole setup sits on 
the floor next to my controller. The bottom cabinet is about 19" high and 
houses 2 900 power supplies, a +-5v power one, my Kenton Pro-4, a Samson 
PL1602 mixer, patchbay and a Furman power strip.  The top 9" is set back at 
a 12 degree angle to help visibility.  Next is a 1 high row of six modules 
also set back at twelve degrees.  On top of that is a 2 row cabinet with no 
setback and a filler strip of wood between the two rows of modules.  One 
top of that will be  another identical 2 row cabinet .  The cabinet is 
built, I just need to do the staining and finishing on it  and mount the 
flat rails.  By the weekend I should start mounting modules I have 
completed in the top cabinet.  The bottom three rows are fairly well 
accessible from a sitting position and house the frequently used 
modules.  The top two rows will house less frequently used modules and 
modules used with guitar input.
