Hi, thanks for the kind words.
I got the housing off Ebay in Germany. See posts 1551 ff on this thread for more details.
I made cut outs, slightly larger than necessary on the case itself and had the two aluminium panels made by a german firm called Schaeffer in Berlin. On their website they supply a free software program to create the layout required, this includes text facilities for either printing or engraving. The software will also quote the price, I paid approx. 90 Euros for the larger panel und 47 Euros for the smaller. They took about 10 days to arrive and saved much work and as I mentioned above I would not have been able to make them to the same exact measurements.
PS just seen you are also in Germany, so shouldn't be any problem for you
