    So first up is the electronics enclosure. I had a look around for an affordable case but wow for the most part they are incredibly expensive. So I thought what the hell, good first project for my CNC. I had heaps of left over 50x25x1.5 aluminium 'L' shaped extrusion and a big sheet of 3mm thick HDPE I didn't end up needing.

    So I went and brought a cheap rivet gun and went to work. I CNC'd the front case door out of 5mm PVC, the rest of the case was CNC'd out of the 3mm black HDPE. It came out bloody well I reckon, my fabrication teacher would have been proud.

    Anyways here are some pictures of it and some of my cyclonic dust collection setup.
