Hi,

thanks.

Smallbear has The Bare Box which isn't the exact same but it is sloped anyway.

Bare Box #1 is out of stock, but here's a link: http://smallbear-electronics.mybigcommerce.com/the-bare-box-1-2-knob-pre-drilled/

Bare Box #2 is here: http://smallbear-electronics.mybigcommerce.com/the-bare-box-2/

I've been barking up this tree for years. You'll have to draw up your own if you want one made.

With a hacksaw and jbweld you can modify a regular diecast enclosure into a very decent wedge.

Thanks a lot!

I am the process of a univibe build (Neovibe) and went with one the same as the second one you listed from Sunemall.

(see pic below)

I started this build about a year ago and only just received the custom label last week so I'm now up to the stage of fitting the label and drilling out the enclosure.  There is more than enough room in this enclosure.  I can post some more pics once I've fitted it all out.

You are the man!! Awesome!!

How you did the front panel?


Yes, upload more pics, please!


Thanks.

[Governor]

Will do, I guess that's the main reason it's been sitting in my work bench for the past year is because I could not find an enclosure I was happy with!  Was looking to have one made, then I found this one via an eBay seller and just thought stuff it, if I don't get something it will never get finished.

I made up the panel label design just using MS Word, it took me hours (bit of a cross between the déjà vibe and the original to suit the enclosure dimensions really).  Then I took it to a sign/graphic place and they were able to make it up for me (they do electrical control panel type stuff).

If you do go with that same enclosure I'm happy to send you the document with my design of the front panel of you like.

Finally finished this week, as promised here are some pics with above mentioned enclosure.  Pretty happy with it overall, I used a 3D printer to make a mount for the PCB and attached it using the industrial strength 3M double sided tape.

Sorry, for the delay!!

This is awesome. I will get some tips of your build!


Amazing job.

[Governor]

Sure thing, thanks.  Just let us know what info you need.

Maybe off topic, but I have to ask - did you use a light bulb, or LED?

[Governor]

Light bulb for the LDR's, I don't think an LED would work so well.
