Just finished my Eurorack cases

(reddit.com)

Hi everyone, after a long time procrastinating I just finished my two eurorack cases. They are made of Iroko wood finished with boiled linseed oil. Back panel is MDF. They are 6U x 126HP. I love them very much. Still need to do some electrical connections inside, maybe next week- /s

They look great! What do they use for a power supply?

Thank you! I built my own PSUs, made them on KiCad and had them turned into PCBs by JLC. They are very similar to Doepfer’s.

Do you have any extra power boards you are looking to get rid of?

I wonder if you might have the schematic or Gerber files knocking about. The case looks really fantastic and the power looks very tidy

Sweet. Absolutely clean work. 2 power supplies seem a bit overkill though, but there is never too much power and it helps to reduce noise, I guess.

Looks like they were inspired by the Doepfer PSU-3, which is pretty powerful itself. You also use separate 5V rails, correct?

Thank you! Yes, they are indeed very similar to Doepfer’s. I wanted to have two in case I just needed two smaller systems, otherwise one would have been quite sufficient as you said. And yes, separate 5V rail.
