Adding enclosures to the notes?

Open rsre opened this issue 5 years ago • 7 comments

Hi,

I was considering adding some talk about possible enclosures and how to build them. I don't know if there is much information regarding this topic in the thread. I've seen some aluminium extrusion enclosures, some 3D printed ones (like yours) and a few others.

What do you think?

I'd be happy to add them, but i've really no knowledge about what there is around. I know only mine and the modified one that Sparky is using. If you want to add some lines about them, please do it, i'd be happy to add infos about my solution

Hi, this is just to say that I've ordered this (candidate) enclosure for the Unisolder: https://it.farnell.com/hammond/1411ru/enclosure-utility-aluminium/dp/2763665

I will tell you if I'll manage to put all the stuff in there. Looks like that pcb at least will fit.

I confirm there is enough room in the enclosure for all the stuff.

https://www.hammfg.com/part/1411FBRU or https://www.hammfg.com/part/1402HV should work with Hammond parts you need to find a dealer FYI

My unisolder fits https://www.hammfg.com/part/1411RU perfectly (even if the transformer I'm using is a bit oversized).

I purchased the enclosure from Farnell (but it was actually shipped by Hammon directly).

I found a nice looking case on thingiverse in case anyone has a 3d printer: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3460761

@CoolNamesAllTaken wow that looks amazing. A while ago i started designing my own, i think i've linked some photos in the thread. But i like this one more than mine.

Anyone volunteering to write the "Enclosure options" paragraph in the notes?
