When I made my replica of the Popular Electronics Cyclops, I couldn't manage to get access to a drill press or box-and-pan break. I finally used cut2Size metals: https://www.cut2sizemetals.com/ I was very pleased with their work. You can see the results here: http://wsudbrink.dyndns.org:8080/cyclops/index.html Look on the "Collecting Parts" page too. The parts they made matched my drawing exactly and also (of course) fit the vintage chassis parts exactly. As a quick aside, I just bought (last weekend) a small drill press and I'm looking forward to putting it to use.

Courbis Subject: [vcf-midatlantic] Retro Related Metal Work Anyone here know of a cheap metal solution for a small U frame or thin walled tube for a chassis project? It would need to be something about 3.5" x 2.5" x 10". I will also need an end plate with some holes cut out that can mount to the chassis. Thin steel and a break would work also I believe however I don't want to do the work. If interested in the work let me know. Thanks! Henry S.
