=== Specifications ===
MOTM panels use U, the [[19-inch rack]] unit for height and width. The height is 5U (8.75"), while the widths are in multiples of 1U (1.75"), with some fraction less to allow for manufacturing tolerances. The finish is baked-on two part Polane paint,<ref>[https://www.modwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=60156 Where to get MOTM-style silkscreened panels made?],
=== Blank panels ===

Thickness usually ranges between 1.5 mm (0.62") and 2.5 mm (0.12") but see what is standard for the format, e.g. a thickness of 2.28 mm (0.09") for 4U.<ref>[https://www.modwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=86107 What type of aluminium is used for faceplates?],
