[HBR] HBR Chassis Kit

[Martin Marris]

Sorry, quick correction: the chassis size I used was 13" x 5" x 3" -- 13
inches long, not 10.

I have ordered LH Heeger "omni" chassis several times.

The quality is excellent. It is also quite useful sometimes to be able to
mount components on a top plate for instance, prior to screwing on the
sides.

You can see some photos of one of my Heeger-chassis projects here:

Please note however that I used a relatively small chassis in this case (10"
x 5" x 3"). The aluminum is relatively thin. I don't know how this sort of
construction would hold up for a large project such as an HBR -- perhaps it
would work best if you used two or three smaller chassis bolted together,
and you might have to add angle brackets for extra stiffness.

Several months ago someone mentioned  LM Heeger (link below) as a source of
chassis "kits".

Q. Has anyone ordered  a  chassis from this company and if so do you have
any comments on quality good or bad?
