Not too impressed with what I came up with but it's (believe it or not) way way better than my last attempt.

I left out the DMX for now as I don't have a controller. Think i might get another box and try to make a neater box anyway.

Are you ready for the monstrous scare face of a box?

As you can see I'm not to hot with a dremal, which kind of has a mind of it's own.

You should find a way to have an access to a milling machine, then it will be easier to make something like this
(note : you'll need a laser engraver too if you'd like to write the Pango logo)
(note2 : I know, I made an horrible spelling mistake, I forgot the second "l" of controller, since in my mother tongue there's only one )

Very nice sbk! How much did it cost to make an enclosure like that and would you consider making more?

I'm currently in the process of removing the FB3 from my projector and putting it in a separate box. I was going to use something like this: http://www.kjell.com/content/templat...0000,264500000

...but yours looks so nice!

You can find that case here : https://www.distrelec.com/ishopWebFr...se=&catalog=01
(ref 300984). But I don't know if they ship where you live...

The case itself is cheap (12 euros + shipping), but there's 1-2h of work, and considering I've to make that in my factory during my working time and not in the same place I'm working usually, and wait on a free machine and stay undetected from the boss it's a little difficult to manage... But I can try, without promise...

Ah, I found that enclosure in Sweden as well. It costs a bit more though.

How did you fix the board inside the enclosure? Do you have pictures of the inside?

In my defence all I had to hold the box in place while I drilled was a food blender, butter dish and sheer mind control.

With spacers bolts, as you can see in the attached picture... Very precise positioning of the board is needed to fit the holes in the front panel !

Man, are you working on your laser in your kitchen?
This being said, it's a great work, regarding which tools you was using!
