Boxes, Cases, Mechanical Design

Hi guys

Ok, my first project is nearly done, the prototype works fine.
Now for the hardest part of any project: The casing and making it look nice.

Where do you (euro)guys buy boxes for your projects?

I'm in need of a small case for my electronics, something along the lines of 10x4x2 cm... Must have one hole for power wire and be proofed for automotive use.
Where do I start my search?

This should be simple, yet I'm clueless.
I hope for some help by you experts :slight_smile:

Google "ip67 project box ebay".

This will let you know where they are able to get a suitable box.

Bear in mind, not all things labeled "IP67" are created equal...

Hi

I used an empty BIC lighter as a case to integrate my RC VTail Mixer with a NANO inside, looks great and it is easy to find the product...

Here are pictures of the NANO cabling prior to insertion, and the final product. Just need a cutting tool and hot glue to do the job. A word of caution; Please make sure the lighter is empty before proceeding ...

Oups, file too big..
Here is the final product

and the final product.. :o
