Hi,

I'm actualy building a 8.4" field monitor with HD-SDI (amonst other, as it also have DVI, VGA, s-video, composite and maybe composante).
1024x768 pixels and accepting every formats from the EX1 through HD-SDI.

I'm now in need of a box enclosure for it. As I'm in France, maybe someone will know some french company that work with alumunium or steel to make a case. This is the only part I can't do alone :)
Maybe someone else from outside France knows a company that may do that, or a company selling 8.4" enclosure for LCD.

Yes, my screen will be a competitor of the Carrion, same specs but cheaper. I'll try to take some pictures of the screen tomorrow.
Please, help :)
