Custom Eurorack Case Builds (Part 4) - Prototype C

Re-purposing those original wooden cheeks I made months ago, I picked up 4 sets of 168HP rails from Modular Synth Lab and made my first "huge" Eurorack case :-) Hey, it was huge to me.
Building "Prototype C" was really a fun experience, because I got to learn how Power Supply Units work, how to wire up Bus Boards myself, and I even got into making my own custom 10-pin and 16-pin Modular Ribbon Cables as well. All in all it was a great learning experience.
And, I do love those cheeks!

Eurorack module power connectors are the absolute worst. Couldn't they learn anything from 5U??

[@VisionsMusicGroup]

Thankfully many have started putting the keyed sockets on the bus boards and modules. Not all, so looking for the big "RED" still happens.

[@TheCubanGiant]

Yeah, having to look at something is the worst.

@@VisionsMusicGroup Hinton Instruments has the right idea with their power connectors. Unfortunately, cheapness wins in the marketplace.
