Hi All

Can anyone recommend a shop to have a custom front panel made (3mm alu, powder coat, screen print) in the UK/EU area? I will be ordering 1 for prototype, then orders of 10-20...I'm struggling to get any replies from Grawart and other shops I searched and found...it seems like no one can be bothered with small orders...?

Also I will need to have the chassis made, preferably in the same place but could be elsewhere...

Thanks!
 
I have used Frank a lot but I am not sure if he does powder coat and silk screen. I think he just does engraving.

I know for sure that SRS in the UK will do what you want. Contact Martin Deards there and tell him I sent you. His email is:

He might not silk screen himself, but the Jensamp-51X, OV560, PMV70X and 903-51X panels he did for me are silk screened.

Powder coating might be outsourced too, however, here is a list of powder coating colours Frank offers (scroll down).

Thanks Ian I contacted him  8)
 
....ok I have contacted those recommended, Frank made me a front panel....I could use some other suggestions for a chassis...SRS is very expensive (total over £1000 for my 4u chassis plus a few extra bits)...

...any ideas? Has anyone ever used Holt Broadcast?
