(yer, what's become of UK manufacturing? - that new steam engine that's just been built in the UK - we had to get the Germans - the Germans!!! - to make the boiler - this country, used to be the world leaders in steam engine design/construction)


Length (internal): 300mm – 310mm (min – max)
Width (internal): 100mm – 110mm (min – max)
Depth (internal): 32mm - 36mm (min – max)

Wall thickness: 3.5mm - 4.5mm (min -max)


Lid to go on top required - same thickness as enclosure wall thickness.


Aolly type: 6061, 7075 ... whatever, makes little difference.

If anyone out there is willing to take this on, drop me a note please. No such thing as a free lunch ... yes, thats understood.

Quite happy for someone to take this on on a "hobby" basis - theres no IP or DIN spec, or any other spec that has to be satisfied.

Thanx guys
Would it be acceptable for the base to be removable as well as the lid? Is there any special requirements for the corners - must they be square (internal and external), or could they be radiussed (essential if machined)?
