4 is not enough, never!

So take Six instead!

The Monster expansion for the CPC - for up to six MX expansions. And #7 for anything PCB:

Looks good but loaded the gerber files up to Seeed Studio and quoted over $40 probably because of the size. Any recommend PCB suppliers?

Try JLCPCB or PCBWay.

Bit cheaper from PCBway at $34 but only for 5. SeeedStudio price is for 10.

Looks good!
Would it be possible to have a version which can connect a 90° flexed cable? Usually my CPC is sitting in front of the monitor, which makes it nearly impossible to have such a long expansion.
The Amsdap4.2 (which in total has 6 slots as well) even has the CPC connector on the side, so you don't need to flex the cable. Would be nice to have something similiar for an MX6.
