Someone is selling a headphone amp chassis "kit" on eBay that includes a nice thick front panel with a recess milled out for the volume knob, comes with knob, power switch, IEC power inlet, rubber feet and so on.

 

Has silk-screened "VOLUME"  "POWER" and "PHONES" labels on front panel. rear panel has holes cut for RCA jacks, and IEC power inlet.  Looks a treat for DIY headphone amp builds!

Note:  I have no affiliation with the seller, I just thought I'd mention it in case someone found it useful.  I wish I'd had the option to buy this when I built my CK III !

I love that thick front panel!  Put a 7 mm front panel on just about anything, and I'd buy it.

Yeah that is a nice chassis.

 

Hammond also makes some casework with wood trim now, too.
