I'm building a prototype electronic device and need to construct a

3", and it needs to have cooling slots in the bottom for fan driven
airflow.


Can't say I've ever had this problem.

Can anyone suggest a good way of racking vast piles of discarded
cabinets from old electronic equipment? These days the only bit that's
wroth recycling is the case and the power switch. I (and every other
electronics geek I've known) have truckloads of old cases just waiting
for projects that will never get built.
