Is there any company that makes such items as I have a chassis with no cabinet that I would like to install in one if possible. |

The only commercially made ones are the transistorised imposters with the tape and CD decks on one side. Bending plywood probably isn't the easiest task but I reckon if I was in this situation I'd give it a go. ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾ A valve a day keeps the transistor away... |

It's for my 1937 Reliance Skyraider chassis. I want something nice to mount it in till if I ever find the correct console cabinet for it. It's a project for my son. |

Yes I'm tempted to ask them if they can make one with no holes for knobs or the dial as I could get a local carpenter to help me with those. |
