Does anyone have source for steel 17 inch rack chassis? I want to build
some home brew units such as high level class B 810 modulator and I need
steel chassis due to the heavy iron.
Please advise.

There is a guy who has been selling (Ebay) Lambda multiple output racked
power supplies for next to nothing -- these are steel and weigh a ton. You
can repurpose a Lambda supply for this purpose, just take out the Lambda
regulators for your next solid state project.

I use stainless commercial baking pans for chassis and cut the rackface
from aluminum door kickplate from the hardware store. Instant 19" rack box
for $10! :-)

But he needed 17". Only heard about 23" as an alternative

That's what I love about DIY - when I misread a post, I can just say,
"adjust your dimensions" ;-)

perhaps it was already mistyped? I like 19" racks, but nobody else
around here like them, have two in my shack

Sounds like we're compounding typos here.

The only rack standards I'm aware of are 19" and 24".
