Oh yeah... they also make a point of ending every page with "We can
produce the panel's size by customer request." Seems like that could be
a big positive design factor too, especially if none of the
currently-produced panels give you an efficient fit for the area that
you have available.
No connection with the company - just something I've been noodling on.
