I have several small (1/2 and 1/3 U) pieces of rack gear (LXP1, LXP5, TubePre, AudioBuddy, etc..). I have some universal rack trays thad hold the gear ok, but they are so deep, that when I have 3 or 4 U of gear stacked in my rack, it's damn near impossible to get my hands in there when I want to re-wire. Plus, I'm planning on building a shallower rack to make more efficient use of my small room.
I want to cut these shorter to custom fit my gear. I have some metal shears (the hand-held scissors type) from Home Depot. I don't know if they'll do a good job on this 14 gauge steel, or if they'll cut it at all. Any tips on cutting these down? Or else, does anyone sell shallower universal rack trays for this smaller gear?
