Plastic case for Deicimila?

Hi guys,

I'm doing a small project with a Deicimila at the moment. Once it's finished I'd like to put it into a proper plastic case of some sort. With so many Arduinos out there I figured I'd find lots of sites selling these but I haven't, any suggestions? Requirements are - looks 'proper', splash proof, reasonably rugged, preferably some sort of breakout for a couple of input/output lines (RJ45 would make sense for this, but it doesn't really matter).

Any thoughts greatly appreciated!

If you need something waterproof http://www.otterbox.com/waterproof-cases/otterbox-1000/

You may need to modify it and add a hole for some IO

:slight_smile:

That's pretty nifty alright, if I have to get one to modify I'll look at that. Pretty cheap as well.

I was more thinking of one that was designed with the Arduino specifically in mind that might already have the proper holes cut. I can modify my own if necessary, but it would be nice to get one that looked neat and 'proper'. Cutting a hole in the side of the Otter with my Stanley would really take away from the professional look of it, if you know what I mean :). Any specific Arduino cases out there?

Wal-Mart (the SuperWal-Marts) have some waterproof boxes in their camping sections. They're probably too big for your purposes but only $10 or so. When I'm not working with my Arduino, it stays in a felt-lined Altoids tin on my desk.

I think the Arduino just cries to have a custom steampunk box made for it, though.
