Re: [Elecraft] Interesting project enclosure for board-only projects
Elecraft already has their signature case style with the six face panels and the three-hole bar brackets for vertices. Maybe they can make them in 2-56 size for the minimodules. The end pieces could be varied to accomodate the mini-modules. They might even simplify their end by just selling a bundle of case parts, good enough for making 3. I just love thinking of things for other people to do. Leigh/WA5ZNU ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.

Re: [Elecraft] Interesting project enclosure for board-only projects
I've been thinking about the CircuitShell idea after running across it. You could do something similar with a standard Hammond die cast box -- discard the lid and invert the case and attach to the PCB. Use two of them at right angles on the top and bottom as in the CircuitShell if necessary. Either way, of course, requires that you design the PCB to fit the box and that you watch the trace routing around the box edges if you go with a conductive enclosure such as the Hammond series.
