There are cheaper ones right here at home. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811148058 You are right though - I could cut out the front and back of this chasis, and have the CNC shop just do two "bolt on" pieces for me - a lot less material and work for them.

Just lol @ the objectification. We all have our preferences this doesn't mean we are treating them as an object. All humans pick based on preference it doesn't even have to be a preference of looks it can be something else. With that said - I like blondes :) (Although I have a brunette...

Yes that's similar to what I've designed but mine is only 4u and holds mini itx boards. Plus that one is almost 1000 Euros - I'd rather put the money into my own R&D.

My city only has like a population of 100,000 so I doubt something like that exists here. I will be going to the different local shops around and talking to them still and see if anyone can provide me with some services. I've also already contacted athena power to see if they can do anything...

Well if $300 isn't going to get me very far I may as well go get some fiberglass and start work on my own and not even bother with steel/metal.

Well I've already been up too late working on this project so I'm headed to bed for now, but keep the ideas rolling!

Yea i was assuming they would use flat metal and put some folded bends for strength, although I am no expert.

Well yes I definitely want an individual unit to start with because there could be some issues that need to be sorted with it. Do you think I could get it done around $300? (Probably wouldn't even use a whole sheet of metal in lay flat dimensions.).

Without getting into too much detail it is sort of like a blade server, but without the expensive blade server vendors. I've created the model in sketchup to the millimeter precision (it can be exported to AutoCAD)

I have a 3d model of a 4u rackmount chasis with pretty good detail and I need someone to build me a prototype. Who/Where should I go to? Do all of the chasis vendors make their own with their own equipment or do they all use some sort of central place that specializes in making these?

You're talking lots of money there. I'd suggest starting simple. That is the last of my suggestions here on this thread because it seems like we are hijacking it.

They are in fact fully associated with you - it doesn't matter what the ASN is. You can move them around without trouble. If you have your own ASN you will have to do your own BGP and you'll need more expensive hardware.

You don't need an ASN, you can provide your datacenter's. The process took us a month and a half just very recently - and it was a rigorously detailed process. As long as you have justification you will be fine.

Money talks.

Ahh that makes sense. I was thinking 'longer' meant 'more'.

Why would everyone filter? Isn't that like saying my ISP can't BGP announce my /36?

What do you mean /48 is the maximum length that can be announced via BGP? That doesn't sound right. So /48 is what you would assign to a device like a switch or router that can have multiple attached devices?

I'm reading the RFC and it says that end sites are supposed to be assigned a /48. This means that someone is going to get 256 /56s and 64,000 /64s? This is 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 unique ip addresses in each /64 if I'm reading correctly. Isn't this wasteful? How many ipv6 are you guys...

Well this is funny - http://167.160.90.5/unsub.php.. seems like there are some people using this range now with a mailing list. The page says "Please enter your email address and click unsubscribe to be removed from our email list. Please allow up to 48 hours for your request to be processed."

My customers are not Damiens problem but I am a singular customer using the entire range - and therefore I am his problem. None of this means Damien shouldn't have any type of moral responsibility. Contracts are good - I hope if nothing else comes of this everyone is reminded to always get a...
