Greetings guys…newb in the US here.
Im new to synthesis but good with electronics. I have an idea of a set up and want to do everything myself. Only thing i need to source is metal blanks for my modules. Anyone have any recommendations? Im wanting to do bigger modules as opposed to the smaller Euro rack size ( approx 4x8 inches)
Any help is appreciated and thanks for your time!

See here where onlinemetals.com was recently quoting $46.80 for a similar order, and here where midweststeelsupply.com was quoting $30.90.
Of course you have to take shipping charges to your location into account too.
(0.05" because that was what the first poster ordered, but I concur with the 0.063" recommendation.)
