People have ask for a separate thread about this device so here we go......
2 of the 800Va Avel Lindberg transformers will fit in the Hammond chassis (PE#320-840). It's a steel chassis, but it will flex from the 26 lb weight of 2 transformers.
To stiffen the chassis and add a little class, I used a powder coated rack mount front panel. (PE#262-112). These are made from pretty thick steel and as a result are a little trickey to machine.
I wanted the greatest number of outlet for this device so I went with snap-in AC receptacles. That of course drastically increased the amount of machining. In hindsite I should have used 3 standard duplex 'Modula' receptacles. Doing that would have not only given me better quality outlets, and only required making 3 large rectangular cutouts.
Anyway, here's the chassis and front panel with all the machining completed.
The small rectangles cut in the front panel and chassis are for individual power switches for each of the transformers.
