toneburst Posted June 13, 2006 Report Posted June 13, 2006 Anyone have any cool ideas for enclosures for a 'SIDBox Uno' with a Step A interface (ie LCD, 5 buttons and an encoder)? I'm currently thinking white plastic, but want something a bit more exciting than a bog-standard ABS project box. I'd also prefer to be able to drill holes etc. myself with hand-tools, so that effectively rules-out aluminium boxes, I think. Anyone any ideas/suppliers I could try?I'm UK-based, incidentally.Alexhttp://www.toneburst.net Quote
th0mas Posted June 13, 2006 Report Posted June 13, 2006 I've had good luck looking at junk shops for old electronic gear. My SID (photos soon, it's almost done) is in a Cable TV channel changer case (which is annoying as hell, dremeling metal = bad). For my next projects I found two SEGA Master units that are going to rock, they have a very neat sloped case design that's perfect for a desktop synth unit. Quote
toneburst Posted June 13, 2006 Author Report Posted June 13, 2006 cheers for your reply th0mas,cool! I was looking for something with a sloping front-panel too. I have a Novation Nova desktop synth which comes in a nice handy case http://www.vintagesynth.com/index2.html (and is incidentally also a really nice synth). I was thinking more of getting some sort of new case or project box for it though. I've been looking at some suppliers and some of the prices seem a little OTT. Like £40+for slope-top keyboard-style ABS boxes.....Alexhttp://www.toneburst.net Quote
