Where did you get the expanded metal for the bottom of the rack???Looks great BTW...

[DumpsterRC]

Is that DIN rail on the sides? It looks kind of like it but I remembered DIN rail being wider than that. Looks great.

Thanks guys, it's been slow at work so I grabbed the bosses inbox from his desk , thats where the expanded stuff came from. You can get them from Staples. I made the rest from some welding rod with the flux removed and some DIN rail.

I was going to post up that I bought a 5 piece wire mesh desktop set from Wal-Mart for $10. (fastz14 tipped me off to the set)

Has TONS of scale expanded metal - can't beat the price either! :mrgreen:

I thought I recognized those 15mm DIM rails, heck I threw out 6 feet worth the other week at work. Now Im wishing Id snagged at least a foot worth, sigh. They look very scale, props.

Those are quite nice. Great clean work.

You can also use car speaker grills for the wire mesh8)

Dang, that looks really clean. I love how it's made of such simple stuff too, I think I may need make one for myself. Nice job.
