small round enclosure for remote footswitch

[fogwolf]

Anyone know where I could get a small round metal enclosure like the Fender single-switch ones? I want to build a simple remote SPST switch, so doesn't even need to be large enough for a circuit board.

Thanks!

Actually I'm looking just for the enclosure, though (all I could find at either site was actual pre-built foot switches in the Fender style). Want to build my own (both because I need to use a momentary switch and because it will be considerably cheaper). Will just use a small square enclosure if necessary, just thought someone might know where to find small round ones for a reasonable price.

Mic Farlow makes round enclosures but they aren't cone shaped. Im sure you could get a used cone switch on ebay for dirt cheap though.

That's an amazing idea - I actually might try that.

Thanks for the responses.

Thanks - couldn't find them, though - mind sending a direct link to one there?

I've collected a bunch of them, I've got a Fuzzface in one of them
though they're a little bit too tall to be a stable stompbox (isn't awfully think metal either)
