Initial setup may not exactly be cheap, but once you have a production line
going, you're away....
Screw holes don't have to be recessed. cup screws can look nice too!!!
Perhaps said company would cut holes in flat sheets & then bend to
required
shape.....
Whoever makes the RPP faceplates you can get in B&Q manages to cut
holes in
steel alright.
Actually, there's a thought - you make plastic inserts that fit the RPP
modular face plates - much easier to cut plastic!
I use RPP CAT5 sockets & they don't look so bad mixing plastic &
brushed
steel......

This brings me back to my earlier comment about forgetting SCART sockets
&
just using S-Video & phono or whatever - much easier to drill holes
for!
