New DIY EuroTile Case for 1U Tiles

The EuroTile case has been redesigned to be easily DIY’d with common hand tools. Construction requires only glue and clamps. We spent a lot of time and built countless variants to come up with a case that has a great fit and finish but is very easy to build by anyone. Instructions here.

The kit includes all the hardware required to build the case, and optionally a pre-built power PCB for solderless construction.

  • Power header under each module.
  • Two Eurorack 10-pin power headers.
  • Ample passive ventilation.
  • Dropped-screw clean-out hole.
  • Standard 2.1mm power connector and switch.
  • Beefy internal power supply.
  • Powder-coated rails with holes for M3 machine-screws (included).
