Alluminium extrusions

[RGbee]

Hi peeps,
Anyone know where i can get hold of some of this (in the U.K)
The U.S website seems to sell it only as part of a package, but i only need the extrusion

Ideally, i need about 1metre of it

Cheers

Thanks for the suggestion swami,
I've seen this stuff before, but i'm not sure how it's possible to achor sheet metal to it.
This was why i was after corner extrusion, to do something like this...

I was sort of looking for something like that a week or so ago.. Instead, I was thinking I might just get these machined up

Very cool web site. Thanks for posting. I have a few edison cases that use this and it's nice to have a source for replacement parts if necessary - or building another.

... I'm in Germany and use mostly profiles from Isel or Item for mechanics or cases -- here the link to them in GB:
Isel - http://www.isel-uk.com/contact.php
Item - http://www.item24.co.uk/

The PP-profiles from Isel could be interesting for cases too: http://www.isel-germany.de/products/...?lang=en&ID=p0

Hi Viktor,
Many thanks, that's exactly what i'm looking for.
Unfortunately, i'm still waiting for a reply to my 3 emails.
If they do respond, i'll put the prices in this thread.
There is another company that sell something very similar, they're based in the U.S. Again, i'm just waiting for a reply

I'm a fan of the extrusions made by the MK technology group. They have distribution in the UK: www.mkprofiles.co.uk

I used their extrusions recently to make a couple of satellite projectors:




Aluminum Extrusions (er, I guess aluminium depending on which side of the pond you reside) make case design a snap.

as did i.




i tapped holes in the corner connectors. that allowed me to bolt the panels to the case.
