Lloyd,

The original manufacturer of the aluminium profiles is
http://www.fischerelektronik.de/

The front an back can be done by almost any workshop.
Also the mounting holes for Ethernut. As an alternative to
drilling the mounting holes into the profile, one may use
a 100 mm wide carrier plate.

We carried them to a nearby company to remove the
original clear transparent anodization and re-anodize
them in red.

Anodization should be done after cutting / milling,
so all edges are covered.

Next we carried them to another company doing the
screenprint.

The problem with these housings is, that the LED
indicators of Ethernut1/2 are hidden inside.
For Ethernut 3 they are quite nice, because the
link and activity LEDs are integrated in the RJ45
connector.

Harald
